After disembarking from the sleeper train, Valerie and I headed back to the Oslo train station to begin a quick exploration of Oslo. We picked up a 24 hour Oslo Pass, which allows unlimited access to Oslo public transit and museums. In the 6 hour period between 9:30 and 15:30, we packed in six different museums (Fram Museum, Kon-Tiki Museum, Maritime Museum, Viking Ship Museum, Ibsen Museum, and the National Gallery). My favorite was probably the Fram museum (which actually contains the polar ship Fram). Finally, we rushed for the overnight ferry departing for Copenhagen at 16:45.

Norway was pretty nice and perhaps we’ll visit Scandinavia again in the future. However, it’s worth noting that everything in Norway is expensive. The cheapest meal we had was a hamburger, cheesebuger, fries, and mini-pancakes from Burger King. Total cost: about 16 USD.
