I really enjoyed Oslo. \u00a0I could picture myself spending lots of time here. \u00a0It was easy to be comfortable in such a well-put-together city.<\/p>\n

Of course, I’d have to be rich to spend much time here.<\/p>\n

I realize I haven’t shown you the Oslo City Hall yet. \u00a0I love how severe it is:<\/p>\n

The Oslo City Hall does NOT want to hear about any of your nonsense.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Getting around the city was a snap, with the subways, buses, and trolleys.<\/p>\n

I Do have to give a thumbs down to the TGI Fridays in the city center.\u00a0 Despite having a charming hostess from San Diego, the service was ridiculously slow.\u00a0 I was there on a Monday afternoon, hardly a rush time, and after waiting for a cheese quesadilla for an hour I gave up and left.<\/p>\n

On my last day in the city I took everyone\u2019s advice and did a quick tour of the remarkable Vigeland Sculpture Park.\u00a0 This is a huge park dedicated to the unusual work of a single artist:\u00a0 Gustav Vigeland.\u00a0 I got lots of pictures on my visit, which was briefer than I wished because it was really starting to rain.<\/p>\n

In \u00a0a perfect world I’d spend hours in this park with the camera, preferably RIGHT after it opens, so I wouldn’t have so many other gawkers to contend with.<\/p>\n

But check out the strange and beautiful work of Gustav Vigeland!<\/p>\n
