Some people take great photographs of Oslo.
Still in Oslo and, clearly, not in the right part (or perhaps I should be here at a different time of year). I do love this city, and I’ve always stayed at great hotels here, including the Scandic Edderkoppen where I am now. If you’ve never been, get yourself across to Norway at some point – it’s a beautiful country. Shame I have to leave today (such a short trip), but check out this photo set for more great views of this city.
In Oslo again. It’s colder than elsewhere.

I have come to Oslo –again (or here and here) – on business. According to Flickr, there are 14,366 photos tagged Oslo in their system. This is one of my favourites, and these are the most interesting. I need to find something unusual to snap here!
Where are we this week children? That’s right, we are in Norway.
I’ve just come back from a couple of days in Oslo. The meeting was good, and I spent the afternoon on the waterfront, drinking beer, and proofing some new documentation. Good way to spend a Friday!
I am in Oslo and I am certain I saw snow.
It may be Thanksgiving Day for some of my colleagues but some of us are still working. I am, however, lucky enough to be in Oslo. I flew in last night. It was dark when I arrived but there was an unmistakable hint of snow on the ground at the airport. Considering all the trips I make to this part of the world, I have been a little disappointed that I have never seen a great deal of snow here. I was particularly saddened that there was no snow in Helsinki recently. Alas, by the time I made the centre of Oslo there was nothing to be seen.
I grabbed a few shots of Oslo when visiting
Sometimes I appreciate that I am very lucky. At the moment I am running a training course in Oslo, Norway. A few mobile-grabbed pictures I’ve captured:

The christening was yesterday. It was great – apart from the rain that soaked us as we walked to the church. Even though I did not understand a word of the ceremony (and there were two babies being christened and a confirmation), it’s still quite a thing to see all these people stand in front of a congregation and wet the baby’s head. Of course the party afterwards was good, meeting people that I had not seen since Cheryl & Thomas’ wedding some eleven years ago. It’s always great food. For some reason, I love Norwegian food (although some would say I just love food). The evening part was spent sitting on the patio as the sun set, talking about old times and house-buying. Shame to be back really – although I would really love my bed right now.
