Cruise Day 1 Oslo

We spent a pleasant day wandering around Oslo. Several museums, lots of boats (Viking, Arctic etc). Perfect walking weather. The City Hall was a surprise treat and the Munch exhibit was an eye opener to a lot more if this artist's work than just The Scream. In order we: -walked past Akershus Slott (castle) on the way from the dock. - caught the ferry over to the Bygdoy peninsula - visited the Vikingskipshuseet - visited the Kon-Tiki Museum - visited the Frammuseet museum - took the return ferry to the city - walked into the Radhus (City Hall) - visited the Nasjonalgalleriet and its Munch 150 exhibit - walked through the streets and up one side of the Det Kongelige Slott (Royal Palace) - back through the main shopping street (Karl Johans Gate) - past the National Theatre and Stortinget (Parliament) - into the Domkirke - did some minor shopping - stamp, drink - finally, dropped into the tourist info centre to find out where to post a card After that it was a short walk back to the ship.
