Oslo!

We met Karen's parents in Olso, much to the delight of John and Lydia.  After spending some time figuring out our trip, we went off sightseeing - we took the boat out of the Oslo harbor and just across the fjord to visit the X:viking museum

After the viking museum we took a pleasant walk back to the center of Oslo, where John spotted a rock face that was calling to him:

On we walked to X:Vigeland park, a rather sizeable park in Oslo, worked on for many years by Gustav Vigeland, who adorned the park with over 200 statues of ordinary people, of all shapes and sizes, in poses from everyday life.
