After hurtling through darkened and then sunlit skies crushed like sardines encased in a large fetid metal capsule (with no ring-pull!) we made it to gentle Oslo! Once again I am reminded that surface travel is the only thing for us. Send me up in a tiny plane or helicopter and I’m happy as can be but I’ll happily leave the rest of aerial travel to the angels and astronauts. But we arrived ….
Such a beautiful city. We were staying overnight at the Grand Central right at the Central Railway Station. A perfect location.
We dumped our bags and went for a little stroll around the harbour marveling once again at the stunning Opera House spilling right to the water’s edge. Next day our short exploration of southern Norway begins.
| The hotel is within the old Grand Central station. Under the glass and steel dome are an array of restaurants. |
| This stunning construction is the Operas House. You can climb onto its roof |
| One can dine al fresco and any one of a number of restaurants outside the Grand Central. |
