Opera House - Oslo waterfront
Roses and water features, Vigorland park
climbing steeply in the open air to Frognerseteren. One of the oldest
buildings around Oslo, it is now a popular restaurant where we enjoyed
a coff ee before setting off on one of the tracks that lead off into the
forest. One of them which we used on our return, winds its way down to
Holmenkollen ski centre where the famous ski jump doubles in summer as
zip-wire ride.
Th is short trip made a pleasant end to our voyage into the realm of the
polar bear and we came south in search of a bit of warmth. In a couple of
days we explored the friendly, scenically exciting city of Oslo and proved
we could do it without spending a fortune.
