Viking Dreams

Touring Scandinavia May 21 - June 7, 2002

 

 Norway

Day 13 (Sunday, June 2nd) continued ... beyond Frogner Park and more hotel adventure.
The next stop  was the Holmenkollen Ski Jump, site of many Olympic dreams.  Although, from the top looking down, it was more an inspiration for scary dreams for us.

After lunch in a surprisingly warm outdoors at the Frognerseteren Hovedrestaurant (great view) we toured the Norwegian WWII Resistance Museum where dreams of freedom are in every display (too dark for pictures.)

The next stop was the hotel that overbooked us yesterday but promised room today.  Guess what?  The rooms were available, but because it was Sunday the cleaning staff left without cleaning all of them.  Some of us were high and dry! Disaster?  No way!  Adventure!  Magic Moment! 

While we sipped on wine and juice, munched on nibbles, and sang songs to Mac's harmonica, our dauntless guides hustled out and found great, nearby rooms for the rest of us.

Way to go Sonja and Lisa!!
