Last week, I found myself in Oslo, Norway, a city I never thought I would visit. Oslo has that rough-around-the-edges feel, something I wasn’t sure I hated or loved. My love-hate feelings in Oslo quickly turned to more of an embrace after viewing this scene. Two old men discuss the events of the day with ships, tires and water getting a word in edgewise. Who knows the topic of their conversation, sinister or harmless, but I like to think I took home a small piece of it. What looks like a tiny fishing village from this angle, you hardly know an outwardly cosmopolitan city is lurking on the other side of this conversation.

I love Oslo and have had the pleasure of being there a few times – make sure you dine at one of the fine places along Akker Brygge (I reviewed one: http://www.planetmona.com/index.php?id=109&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=752&tx_ttnews%5BbackPid%5D=128&cHash=71f7d4dabf)
One of my gf’s says that Oslo is her favorite city in the world! Never been, but definitely want to go. Great photo!!!
I was in Oslo over Christmas of 2007. Not the smartest time to visit a city so far north! Beautiful place from what I remember – though shockingly expensive.
