Day 23: Tue 1 Aug: Oslo

Image
Start time: 8am Stop time: 3:30pm Weather: patches of blue sky and sunshine every now and again, but mainly overcast, 12 to 21deg   Slept well despite having a casual day on the bike yesterday. Didn't need as much fuel (breakfast) this morning as we're only doing the walking thing today. Greg then went with Mick and Kate to check our bus for tomorrow as we weren't that confident about getting bikes on buses. Anyway, we spoke to the driver on the same bus we'll be on in the morning and he assured us that it would be okay. However, he was quick to refer us to the Swebus website regarding the policy for packaging the bikes up. Having sorted that out Greg went off to meet up with Wendy while Mick and Kate decided to do a city walking tour with Ken and Maree.  We then had a great wander through the city centre, Town Hall, Akershus Fortress, Army Museum, Oslo Uni, Historical Museum, Cathedral and the Botanical Gardens. Enough ticks in the book there to sink a battleship...
