I was in Oslo from Oct 12, 2015 through Oct 14, 2015.

 

The Oseberg Viking Burial Ship (820 AD)

• Serpents are important in Viking and Scandinavian culture
• People who died of illness went to Helheim
• Ship burial, ship takes them to underworld
• Food buried with the dead

 

The more sturdy Gokstad ship (900 AD)

The Tune ship (900 AD)

A picture of me which a friend of mine, at the time, particularly liked. She also said that the hostel I was staying at looked like a hotel because it was so many stories high.

Thai food in Norway was particularly expensive. Not very filling.

 

Two women came out of a car and ask me to come with them. I ran away and ended up at this fortress — The Akershus Fortress.

The original Kon Tiki – a book I found boring in middle school is a museum I find fascinating now. I met my father outside the museum.

An extremely lifelike Thor Heyerdahl

And then I met up with my father and we drove to Geirangerfjord.
