Happy American Independence Day!
Well, all good things must end. This will be the last post from Europe. From Oslo we fly via Reykjavik to JFK and Montclair, NJ where we establish a beachhead in North America.
We didn’t have much time in Oslo, but we were able to walk up Karl Johan Gate to the royal palace, then to Vigeland Park, down to the Aker Brygge neighborhood, to a restaurant for reindeer stew, and back to our hotel.
