Since the hotel serves breakfast from 6-11am, we had plenty of time to sleep, which I took full advantage of. It’s traditional in Norway to serve cold cuts, cheese and really good bread in the morning. They had this for an option in one room and then all the usual breakfast food in the other.
The only touristy thing we all did was go to the Akershus Fortress and the Resistance Museum.
In the afternoon, we took a bus to Roar and Tove’s house about 45 minutes outside Oslo. In a few days, we will be traveling across southern Norway and stopping at various towns. But, most importantly, we’ll be visiting both homes that my great-grandparents lived in before moving to the United States. Tonight, Roar showed us a photo album of when my grandparents visited both houses about 30 years ago.
Check back soon for more photos in the next few days!
