After a nice walk this morning (and the best free breakfast EVER) we booked a taxi to the train station in order to avoid the death walk. Unfortunately, the only taxi in town was busy taking an old lady to hospital. One of the hotel staff insisted that she drive the "Aussie Girls" to the station free of charge - how could we say no? On the way, we received a question that we had heard from every single person we had encountered... "Australia.... so, may I ask... what are you doing here? "

Charlottenberg was indeed a strange place to end up. Nice though.

We caught the train successfully to Oslo, checked into our hotel (after a semi-killer walk) and then went out and bought ourselves some crazy clown pants!

We are going to watch a movie (Wall-E) - hopefully in English - and chill out for the evening.

Missing everyone.
Lots of Love...

Alyce & Mich

PS. (added later) WALL-E was brilliant, but made us both really homesick.
