Trip Tips

While we're struggling to see Spring here in Minnesota, my host sister emailed these gorgeous "Summer in Oslo" photos taken today outside the new Opera House.

She advised:

A "must see" on your sightseeing through Oslo City
in August! The roof is built like a large hill, coming all the way down to the fjord. (Hard to see in the picture). As you can see from the photo, people have already started having picnics up here. They lie in the sun and relax; or enjoy the view and a cup of coffee.



Notice the wonderful view of the Oslofjord! There will be a new tunnel also which will take care of all the traffic in the area. Then the fjord will be even more beautiful.
