Day 59: Munch and munching

Cara and I walked to the nearby Munch Museum.

And we saw the infamous 'The Scream'.




Then spent the rest of the Sunday making dinner.

Torgeir's caprese salad appetiser.

Caras mushroom risotto

And a group effort banana split for desert!

At 10:30pm I headed to the bus stop to take an overnight bus to Denmark but I accidentally completely mixed up the times and missed my bus! I headed back to Torgeir's and booked another for the following day.

We had a delicious brunch to start the day.

Then Cara, Gustav and I went to Frogner Park.

The 'sculpture park' was designed by Gustav Vigeland in the 1920s. 

An art exhibit in the park; Kongolandsbven: a 'zoo village'.

Afterwards we took the tram to the harbour..


..Where we got delicious soft serve ice creams.

Then stopped by Gustav's work to help Tori, an artist, assemble her troll sculpture.


Then for dinner, we went out to celebrate Gustav's friend (Paul)'s good news.
