Oslo, Norway 2008

A day in May saw K in Oslo, the capital city of Norway. It was an unplanned stopover but so, so sad, only for a day. 
He managed to get to the city but a little late in the evening. 
Below are some of the pictures he took of this beautiful city. He said the pictures didn't do justice to this breathtaking place and I took that as a cue and excuse for me to go there myself to be the judge!




There are something about cobblestone paved streets. I find them so romantic!

The National Theater.

The city stands on a fiord, with a large expanse of waterfront which are charmingly developed and one of them is Herbern Marina which K stumbled upon. 

Herbern Marina is truly a gem with beautiful waterfront and abundance of restaurants that serve fresh sea food. But K was too busy taking in the breathtaking sceneries and forgot all about shooting the food, so this is a no-food food blog post. 


He mentioned maybe a trip here for our next (which one???) anniversary..... and I am like sitting on my one hand and chewing the fingers of the other...might help more if I put them together and....PRAY!
