It was interesting walking around in Oslo again, "that strange city which no one leaves before It has set its mark upon him..." Yeah, you tell'em, Hamsun! I lived there for fourteen years, but had convinced myself I didn't like it too much when I moved abroad. Walking down to the harbour area, with Aker brygge and Akershus festning, it can actually be very idylic, making you feel like the poor immigrant just off the boat in America, ca 1893, ooh-ing and ahh-ing at the rich and beautiful people wearing clothes and everything.
Still too expensive, though...
