My mum and Engelbert in Oslo

Of course my mum had to come!!! And there she is with her husband on 17 July.

A very useful thing in Oslo is the "Oslo Bysykkel" service.









For 80,- NOK (ca. 11€) you can register for a whole year to this city bike service. Once you received the card you can get a bike from one of these many bike stands all over Oslo which is then at your disposal for 3 hours at a time. After 3 hours you have to hang your bike back in one of those stands, but you can immediately take out a new one.
This is really convenient and my mum and Engelbert loved it. Unfortunately I didn't subscribe to this Oslo Bysykkel service before. Otherwise also Marco, Max or Sarah could have benefited from this.


















In the Opera:




At Akershus:




Guard change in front of the Royal Palace:






And of course: a visit to Vigelandsparken can't miss... despite the rain we had later.














One evening we bought tickets to go on a Fjord Cruise (including a shrimp buffet). A wonderful tour, especially with the sun we had.





































































Thanks for everything, for coming and for the nice time we spent together. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
