Weekend

Hope to get the picture thing fixed soon.  Regardless had a good weekend in Oslo.  A vibrant city and easy to walk around.  That's good about Europe - if things on map look far away the really aren't that far away.  Visited their National Gallery (Munch's Scream, Van Goghs, Goyas, Renoits, Rodins Thinker, etc etc), the Palace, the ancient castle and fortress, their new Opera house, their Cathedral and the Nobel Peace Center. By the way, if by chance there is a new US prez next year the Euros will be completely shocked. Not that they follow too closely but their image of US politics is circa November 2008 and there is no one who could be better suited for the office than the incumbant.  Maybe best of all here in Oslo is their seafood sold from the waterfront.  Had my fill on shrimp, scallops and salmon since arriving.  Some of their salmon is the tastiest I've ever had.
