After several months home recovering, somewhat, from eye surgery, it was time to finally board a flight for a new adventure!
Hello, Norway!
Following a 27 hour journey, with two exceptionally long layovers in Los Angeles and Frankfurt, a benefit of booking with miles 😊, I arrived in Oslo where I was greeted by my friend Kayla. I met my Londoner friend Kayla on Safari two years ago. Since then, she joined us on the Camino in Sarria, she met me in Norway, and we have two other trips already planned together.
Our first full day brought us to several of the wonders of Oslo. Here are my first few photos.
View from the plane

Domkirke: Cathedral with a gorgeous painted ceiling

Vigelandsparken: The sculptures stretched one’s imagination






Changing of the Guard at the Royal Palace

Nobel Peace Center
Masjonalmussett: The National Museum



Looks lovely. Enjoy your adventure.
Thanks, Lisa! I hope you are doing well.
Hi Lisa, great, finally you can enjoy Norway, after weeks of hoping and worrying. Nice pictures, but, I didn’t ecpext something else from you… 😉 Go on taking wunderful rememberings.
Best regards, Peter
Peter, ah thanks! You’ve been a great support!
Great photos Lisa, safe travels!
Chris, thanks! I miss all of you!
Loved Oslo last August! Definitely agree on Vigeslandsparken…so much to see and ponder. Nobel Peace Center as well. Terrific food! We truly loved Norway…went by boat all way to Svalbard. An adventure.
You are gonna love it all!
Laura, which boat were you on? I just got off Kinfish yesterday! More photos coming soon!
We were on a Hurtigruten small boat cruise from Bergen to Longyearben….I think the boat was MS Trollfjord or something like that. We loved it.
A Hurtigruten! Nice! We took Kinfish, also a small expedition vessel, from Longyearbyen to East Greenland to Iceland. Those photos are coming up soon… My head is still wobbly from returning home last night. 🙂
What an interesting beginning! Enjoy the journey!!!
Thanks, Judi! The journey is still in progress – and it’s amazing!
Thank you so much, Lisa, for sharing. Have a wonderful, magical adventure and be cautious with your eyes…
Thanks, Evyh. My eyes are a journey in themselves. They’re holding up well, which I’m grateful for.
So glad you are back adventuring! Beautiful pictures. Thanks for taking us along! Much love!
Much love to you and yours, Mia!
Amazing sculptures! Enjoy your trip!!
Thanks, Laurie! ❤️
