Oslo,Norway.

1. I wanted to visit Scandinavian countries but tak dapat cari member.sad can?
2. Fionna's 2 travel kaki ffk last minute.
3. flight to Oslo was only GBP14 nett for a return.

1+2+3 = a very random trip.

lol.

and our trip started off with a mad rush at the Prestwick Airport.haha,reached there seconds after the check-in counter was closed...we had to cutQ,mumbled N times of "sorry" and "we are late for our flight,can we go first?"...and it was a mad run to the airplane.

flight leaving 13:25pm,we made it into the cabin at 13:20pm. fuuh!*deeeeep breath*

camwhoring in the train -____-""

upon reaching Oslo Torp,we took a 2hrs+ bus ride to the city centre(now u know why is the flight so cheap?).it was already evening when we reached the city centre...but did i tell u that the sun never really set in Oslo during summer?hehe...

- Norwegian royal palace -

-I forgot what's this building liao^^" -

ohyea..the photos are all in random orders coz the whole trip was soooo random(cheers to fionna tan!XD) that everything's a blur for me now...hah

landmark of Oslo? situated in the well known Vigeland Sculpture Park. the whole park consists of different human sculptures which was pretty cool.oh notice the whole tiang actually consists of human sculptures.



Holmenkollen Ski Tower.one of the coolest place i would say!imagine during winter when the whole place's covered with ice and snow...n u ski aaaaaall the waaaaay dooooown!this ski tower could be easily spotted no matter where i stood.
Norwegian's national sport is actually ski...or was it snow boarding ar?gaah..can't remember.

Sognswann Lake!a place that i would not possibly forget!it's about 5km in diameter...i wonder why it's not a popular tourist spot...hmm.






the Opera Theater!future architects alert!X) my opinion la ok...bleh.



and did i mention that..during my 4days stay in Oslo,it just have to rain...have to blaaardy rain for 3.5days?!
we had to hide in the Folk Museum for almost half a day...hohoho.> <"



this roti canai thingy cost us NOK 200..which is about GBP 2. > <"

so to make up for the loss...we decided to splurge on a fjord cruise.





**hyperventilate**

*silence*













hahaha no la..in my dream lar maybe.that what i was expecting initially so i was pretty much disappointed when we were told that those kind of fjords are only available in Bergen...which was a 6hrs train journey away from Oslo.T_T saaaad can!



but still...it was a good trip lar.say me bias..but i think Scandinavian countries+people rocks much much muuuch more than any of the European countries.United Kingdom included.bleh.
