Well we arrived in Oslo with our ten begs. Scandinavian Airlines was great. It turns out, though, that we should have gotten a flight directly to Kristiansand since because of construction in Oslo we have to take a bus to another train station with our ten bags plus bags. We're also trying to get over the sticker shock of food in Oslo. Two sandwiches, one yogurt and a small coffee cost $35.00 (they were excellent sandwiches though)! As soon as we can find a low-cost grocery store in Kristiansand, we'll feel much better.
The little we saw of Oslo is lovely. The weather couldn't be nicer--the main street leading from the station is pedestrian only and quite lovely. We're all holding up okay. Boys are punch drunk and too excited to sleep. Bill is beyond exhausted having to load and unload most of the bags on and off trains in the two minutes allotted. We're all looking forward to a good night's sleep.
Love,
Martha, Bill, Mark and Walter
