Almost as brave as Norwegians

It has been the coldest and rainiest day of this trip, but we have been at least almost as brave as the Norwegians and not cared about the weather. The day started at the laundry and good breakfast, but then off we went. Munch museum, Vigeland Park with its statues, Nobel peace center, Grunerlökka and Oslo Mathallen were targets of the day. The Nobel Peace Center exhibition of this year’s price winners who are fighting against the sexual violence in wars was the most influencal experience. I listened the touching speech Dr Mekwege had given during the Nobel price seremony. There was also presentation of every peace price winner from the beginning of the 1900. This place was worth visiting really.

Mathallen in Grunerlokka area is both market hall and restaurant area also good for a Backbackers budget. Today we still have almost a whole day here in Oslo before our ferry to Fredrikshavn Denmark in the evening. Luckily they have promised little sunshine for the Ferry trip so we can admire the scenery of beautiful Oslo fjord.
