Frognerparken

I visited Frognerparken, a popular park in Oslo which features a bunch of strange looking statues.

Visit from Kerry

My lovely friend Kerry came to visit me in Oslo :) We went to the local ski jump, but were met with a gloriously wonderful array of fog, fog and a little more fog.

Arctic explorers

Harriet and I, ready to embark on our great arctic adventure into the untouched wilderness of the Tromsø city center.

Pizza with Harriet and Anita

Dinner with Harriet and Anita. We nommed down a ridiculous amount of pizza at which point it suddenly dawned on me that I now consider a $100 bottle of wine to be cheap!

Anita showing off her super giant phone

Worlds most northern brewery

Harriet and I visited the worlds most northern brewery, Mack brewery.

Whilst at the brewery we met this nice fellow who helped teach us that people from Oslo actually speak Danish and that we should not live in Oslo or Denmark.

Aquarium in Tromsø

The weather turned to poo in Tromsø, so Harriet and I headed to the local aquarium to entertain ourselves for the afternoon.




Snow in Tromsø

So, Harriet and I went to Tromsø during the winter. Tromsø is way up in the arctic circle. It apparently snows quite a lot in the arctic circle, who would’ve thought!

Tromsø Cemetery

Continuing my habit of taking photos of cemeteries covered in snow …
