Oslo with OJ

Arrived in Oslo after the second 'longest train ever'. 25 hours from Kiruna to Oslo, with stops in Boden and Hallesburg.

On the train

Met O.J. at Oslo station (an old hockey buddy of Brads) who was kindly letting us stay with him for two nights. Spent that afternoon relaxing, drinking beers, catching up and telling war stories about the good old days of Varsity hockey.

Next day O.J. had to work so we wandered the city of Oslo, seeing city hall, national parliament, city opera house and other usual 'touristy stuff'.

Parliament

Nobel Peace Centre

Filled our last morning in Oslo with a wirlwind 30 minute sprint through the National Gallery before catching a train to the airport and a last minute flight to Paris!

Cheers O.J., good to see you again.

Budget tip of the day: Oslo opera house, it's free to visit and in the summer you can climb it!!
