Our Last Oslo Day 090625:
We started the morning off with in room coffee and pastry, while waiting to do the online check in for our flight home tomorrow.
We made the short walk to the airport rail station and caught the #11 into the Central Train Station. Then we caught the #12 trolly to the water ferry area. The we got on the Bygdoy ferry to the Maritime Museum, Fram Museum and the Kon Tiki Museum.

First we visited the Maritime Museum. Here the history of the Norwegian influence and use of the waters. So many aspects are covered from the Viking Days to the current time of the large cruise ships. Many excellent displays, movies and a boat building demonstration are.
Next we had lunch at their cafe. A nice warm ham and cheese sandwich was split. I did have a great School Bread. It had coconut so Lynn did not want any of it.

Next we visited the Fram Museum. I could go on and on and on about The Mighty Ice Ship Fram. Needless to say any Antarctic and Arctic exploration fan needs to make this a must visit.
The Cafe at the museum has HOT DOGS and they are not bad.
Nice sitting area of cafe
It had been a couple years since we have been there we did notice several new exhibits and displays. These have elevated the experience in many ways.
Then we visited the Kon Tiki Museum. It also has seen some refurbishment and is a great exhibit and learning experience. Then it was ferry, to trolly, to train station where we stopped for some dinner, to train then to our room to eat our dinner and pack up for tomorrow. Now we get ready for the long travel day home. Thanks Much for following along.
