The second part of hols - 1st day in Oslo

The second part of my holiday was WoHOO Norway and Sweden trip!!! It was a 6-gals backpacking!!! Who said we need man when comes to backpack? Who said we need man as navigator? Who said it is dangerous to travel without men? But no doubt...we still need the men la.. well, just as our caddie to carry our heavy bag. haha. it's so heavy wey!





Day ONE
That was my 1st time taking Ryan-air. The cheap flights in UK are that if u need to check in ur bag, u have to pay extra money while booking. It is cheaper to pay while booking, which is only 2pound but if u check in on the day u travel, u got to pay 7 pound. something like that. Since we didnt plan to check in when we booked, so we didnt pay for that. Well, because of the tighten rules in UK airport nowadays, we were not allowed to take many things like liquid, powders, cream and gel stuff on board as handluggage. What the hell, these are all the essential things especially for the pretty gals like us so ofcoz we need to checked in our beautiful bag. My journey started with quite a bad luck for me. We queued up in 2 rows while checking in. since i m always one of the quickies so i m the 1st one of a row. Ta-ma-de! The ground-steward who served me was as clever as a rat, she noticed that i didnt booked for the check-in luggage so she asked me to pay for the 7pounds. My frenz queued after me then move to the next row which has the stupid but lovely ground-steward so in the end, i m the only one who need to pay. Well, nevermind that since i earned 160pound so what is a 7pound to me? it didnt affect my holiday mood after all =p

The flight took about one and a half hour to Oslo, the capital of Norway..

Well, i admit, gals sometimes move a bit too slow. So by the time we get our luggage and dili-dali a bit in the toilets and then walked out from the airport, our darling bus has left us. The bus for the next flight is already there in the bus stop and will only depart after one hour. An hour is nothing at home but it is as precious as the sun when u travel since every minutes counts then.

Can u see the handsome whom the taxi driver talking to? He is the bus driver whom drives the next bus. So kind of him to help us get a taxi instead but just pay for the bus fare. love him so much!








NORTHEN LIGHT!!! we r so soOOOO lucky to see this in Norway!! 1st time in my life that i saw such an amazing mother nature! Especially when the 1st spark of.......

NAH u gals were fooled. MUAHAHA!!! it was just the light of the tunnel taken in the taxi on the way to Oslo city. It was an hour ride but it was not too bad since the scenery was marvelous!

Then the 1st place we went in the city was Infomation Centre. We wanted to buy the Fjord ticket for the following day. Fjord is a MUST go day tour to outskirt Norway. There's a package which includes direct train from Oslo City tmr morning which takes only four hours to reach and includes much more places up to Bergen ( the second large city of Norway ). But the package was very much expensive. So our original plan was to catch a bus that night and join the tour half way in the Voss which was only half the price plus we can just sleep on the bus and save up a night hostel. BUT BUT BUT !!! THERE'S AINT ANY BUS FOR THAT NIGHT TO VOSS~!!!! that's was just too bad coz our plan was affected. We then decided to just take the direct package from Oslo the next day morning. So, it costs us for a thousand over RM. HAha. It was almost all of the cash we brought for the Norway trip. But, there's always one thing call credit card. So, all of us just swapped and go. Which was then our parent's business in Malaysia to pay. We are just so clever, right? But i did cause a disaster in Malaysia. Since Kate dont have a credit card so i helped her to swap by using mom's card. So it comes to abt a few thousand in one go. Because of the time difference, it was 1am malaysia time so i didnt inform my mom right away and after that i just forgot to tell. The nosy credit card company called mom up at 8am and they somemore tought my card was stolen. hehheh..well, it was my fault.


This was taken at the info centre. Me and Jen was doin the planning for our day tour in the city while the rest went to ask for the bus ticket to Voss. Taken by the silly Jia. I tot i looked cool so i post this up. Hehe









So that was set. We went to tour around Oslo night city that night...



Look at Jia so ham-sap ! Poster also she doesnt want to let go. haihhhH....no eye see. hehe



















Karl-Johan's Street. The most happening street in Oslo. It was so beautiful. I truely love this street. It was peaceful, yet happening. arghh what m i saying. ok, i say it this way, it is as in, u feel safe when u r here yet it is not quiet. There's many things to see. I love to go to the night street in everywhere i go. It reflects the local people's lifestyle.













Posed with sharon. Look at the sky. It was so clear. Could it because Norway is near the North Pole therefore it is so clear?
















Norway Troll. It was a lagenda here where million years ago. Norway was not a pieceful place to stay. It was conquered by these creature. But the good ones remain as the city's lucky troll.










At a square...












while we were posing like nobody business. 2 norwegian pointed us to this group of people. Guess who! The Argentina football team!!!! And the man in green is the famous God of football. His name is something Menorika. ops..sorry i m sucks in football's star's name. i only know David beckham by the way.









But the next thing was, WE DONT HAVE A PLACE TO STAY FOR THE NIGHT! since we originally planned to sleep on the bus so we didnt book anything. And since our tour was way too over budget so ta-da! We slept in the train station for the night. Ofcoz things werent always as smooth as u have tought it would be. At first, we slept at the comfy sofas at a closed cafeteria in the station but who could have expected that the station shuts down at 1am?! So, the six gals were chased out and homeless until 4am when it opens again. I was too tired for the day so i slept the most. Even when we were outside the station and the weather was so cold. I slept like a pig.... :)
