Chelsea and Tim
Chelsea and Tim
Over looking Oslo.
God Dag! (good day) Chelsea and I are now in Oslo, Norway staying with one of my dad's second cousins, Tim. We had a pretty good trip here (one hour delay getting out of Dublin, but oh well!). So far Norway strikes me as very similar to the Pacific Northwest. Rugged terrain, lots of mountains and lakes, and saltwater fjords like the Puget Sound. Oslo is a great city to visit, easy to navigate and it offers lots to see and do. Dang, it is expensive though!!! Everything costs about double compared to the US. Tim drove us up to a [View Full Entry]

Oslo day 2

Gokstadskipen
Gokstadskipen
A very sea worthy vessel, this is what the Vikings would have used to reach Iceland, Greenland, and Newfoundland!
Today we had quite the adventure getting into the city! We were trying to follow directions from my relative Tim, but we got confused on the bus to go to the Viking Ship museum and the Norwegian Folk Museum. At one point we asked a bus driver for help, and she pulled the bus over to talk to us (with about a half dozen other people on it!) and even involved 2 other passengers while trying to figure out how we should get there. It was quite the scene! Needless to say we got off that bus quickly, embarrassed about holding [View Full Entry]

Yowza!

This past week has been a busy week! On Tuesday morning we woke up to pouring rain in Bergen. We took the bus to the train station to catch our train to Voss. This was the first leg of Norway in a Nutshell, a popular tour of Norway. In Voss we caught a bus to Gudvangen. We traveled along the winding road in the rain. We passed numerous waterfalls and drove down a switchback road to the bottom of the fjord. There we boarded a boat cruise through Aurlandsfjord and Sognefjord, the world's longest and deepest fjord. It was still raining, [View Full Entry]

Wow. Way to be Zack. Three days in Norway without friends or homework and I blog everyday. Three weeks later with friends and homework and I don't blog at all. Anyways, I think my plan is to try and sum up the last few weeks in a couple of seperate entries. So here goes nothin'! First week of school was a little overwhelming perhaps. I don't really think I realized how much homework was coming nor what its like to sit in 5 hours of classes taught in your second language. Kinda turns your brain to lutefisk. I've been taking a [View Full Entry]

Er planen klar?

 Europe » Norway » Østlandet » Oslo
Årets store happening blir en roadtrip til California de tre første ukene i august. Planen er å fly Oslo-San Francisco via Europa eller USA. Vi reiser på ID (standby) så bare å komme seg over dammen kommer til å være en utfordring! Vi har bestilt leiebil hos Avis og den skal hentes onsdag 06.08.08 og leveres 22.08.08. Vi har da 6 dager på oss til å komme oss til San Francisco fra Oslo......... Bilturen starter i San Francisco og går nedover kysten på Highway 1 til Los Angeles. Hvor vi stopper på veien er det ingen som vet. Fra Los Angeles [View Full Entry]

Only in Oslo...

 Europe » Norway » Østlandet » Oslo
I think in the end the tally was 43 hours to get from Adelaide to OSlo...not helped by little indian men getting off flights...but we got there in the end...straight into a first class reminder of the prices here...train from airport to hotel suburb..60AUD...taxi from train station to hotel..coz by this time we really could not be bothered walking the 2.5km with bags, and we didn't have a local map...20AUD...dinner in hotel (2 mains, 2 beers, one lemonade) 100AUD...so only a few hours in the country and already 180 dollars poorer..eek..good thing we're only here 4 days!! So flying in the [View Full Entry]

A Day at Heathrow!

 Europe » Norway » Østlandet » Oslo
Our day at Heathrow started very early on Monday 30th June. After flying to Perth early sunday to meet Lesley then onto Singapore, our flight from Singapore to London had been delayed an hour and 15 minutes and only having an original turn around time of 2 hours it was going to be a stretch. Onto a bus to terminal 5...which took another 15 minutes..and a race to the desk to get through to the gates. The first security lady looked at the boarding passes and said yes you should make it...the second lady took a quick look and without even [View Full Entry]

Highpoint of Østfold. Since this would be a total waste of time for any foreigner to read, I will continue in Norwegian. If you for some wacked reason want to visit this top, feel free to contact me. Norwegian: Ok, så vi la ut på vår fjerde fylkestopp. Kjør til Rømskog kommune i retning fra Oslo. Etter noen kilometer kommer en avkjøring til Tuckfors på venstre side, fortsett rett fram her. Rett etter skiltet vil det komme en bom på høyre hånd, så kjører man litt videre forbi en bom nummer to og på den tredje bommen svinger man av og [View Full Entry]
