Norway What to Expect

If you happen to be around Arendal and have children (all right... you don't need to have children), by all means go and visit DyrenParken, one of the best bioparks, amusement and theme parks in Europe. Literally thousands of exotic animals on display in their natural habitat, a whole-sized replica of a Spanish galleon and much more. Worth a visit. Have fun!

Beautiful cathedral and the ruins of the fortress, it's worth seeing.

It's much cheaper to eat at the 7-11 and other types of local convenience stores than the restaurants. Eat your big fancy meal at lunch and then get a hotdog or pasta for dinner. Yes, they sell noodles and pasta at convenience stores, as well as bacon wrapped hot dogs!

It is really nice to go up Mount Ulriken and hike around. Beautiful scenery and views. Actually the whole of Bergen is very pleasant to walk around.

If you've been here, you have either been to, or are heading to "trollstigen" and Geiranger....easily the most beautiful place on the planet! Bit scary though to be driving along the edge of a fjord and peeking over the side to see a 1000 meter sheer drop. I was hangin' onto the "jesus bars" the whole way up...and down.

If you happen to visit Tromsø in Summer, head over to the Tromsdalen Kirke (The Arctic Cathedral). They have classical music recital at midnight - it's an exhilaration of senses to be experienced! Your body says that it's midnight and that you should be in bed, however your mind is still very much alert because of the sunlight streaming through the window at the church. On the way back to the city, walk across the bridge and enjoy the view ... It's something to remember!

Do NEVER drink the local brewed 'sprit'

Go to Evergreen, it has the cheapest beer you will find in Oslo.
