Our first night in Oslo; it's not yet dark although it's about 11:30pm.
At the airport in Boston, we saw an Apple computer vending machine. Not selling computers, but it did sell headphones, video eyeglasses (!), cameras, and PSPs. You probably don't believe me, so I took a picture because I am a gigantic tool.
The flight over was mostly uneventful except for a moment where we thought we lost our luggage (false alarm). We stopped in Rekjavik for a layover and got just a glimpse of the place - wow, what a treat that's going to be.
But in the meantime, we're enjoying ourselves here in Norway. We're right in the middle of things here at the hotel -- in fact I just listened to a merrily drunken karaoke rendition of "What Is Love" (also known as the Butabi Brothers song from "Night at the Roxbury") from the bar below us. We had a nice dinner out on a terrace near a little park. We didn't have dinner until about 10pm, but it was still quite light outside.
Tomorrow we've got a big day ahead of us -- we're hoping to hit the Viking museum, the sculpture garden, and as much else as we can squeeze in, as tomorrow is our only full day in Oslo, and then Saturday afternoon we are off to Copenhagen on a boat.
Updates to come ...
