A Weekend in Oslo...

For Amber's birthday she wanted a short get-away, so we went by train to check out Oslo for a weekend. Lucky for us the weather was absolutely perfect - warm and no rain! Some highlights from the weekend for Amber was the Viking Ship Museum, Vigeland Sculpture Park, and watching The Hunger Games. Being the 'design' guy I am, I really enjoyed it all, but also thought the modern architecture of the Opera House was pretty cool... Here are some pictures:
Electric cars were all over the city, but this had to be our favorite!

One of the many sculptures at Vigeland Sculpture Park

It took 3 carvers 14 years to complete this...
