Waiting for summer to reappear in Oslo

Hey folks,

it's June, but it feels like April. Typical Norwegian summer is sun and rain at the same time. We had a bit of a summer a couple of weeks ago, with temperature over 20 degrees, but now it's around 15. To remind myself of how great summer time in Oslo is, I pulled out these pictures from a sailing trip with my boyfriend's family.

We started at Aker Brygge where most people in Oslo spend the day if the sun is shining :-) Fresh breeze from the ocean, ice cream and cold beer!

Surprisingly, a couple of tourists started to take pictures of us while we were sailing. WE WERE THE ATTRACTION!

A very nice day where we sailed for 6 hours, around Oslofjorden to Nesodden bypassing Snarøya in Bærum.

Typical summer lunch in Norway: fresh shrimps on fresh bread, mayo, dash some lemon on. And for dessert, strawberries! :-)


Here we are :-) Me and my boyfriend :-)
