Oslo Norway



We visited the Kon Tiki Museum and learned of the voyages of Thor Heirdahl as he proved ancient peoples could sail across the ocean in rafts. We saw the raft that Thor sailed across the Atlantic as well as Raj II, the reed boat.







We saw the changing of the guard at the palace, which had much pomp, circumtancce and pagentry. here were horses, a band and a regiment of soldiers. Then we visited City Hall with the 5 faced clock, wonderful brickwork and carvings outside and lovely frescos inside.




The building where the Nobel Peace prize is awarded was lovely.




It was cold and windy here today, and arrived back at the ship just before the rain.
