2-28-14 I am Elsa

Friday, feb 28th
- fly into Oslo, very easy flight and virtually no customs
- took a bus to our hostel but got lost after the bus. Some guy saw our confusing faces, asked if we were confused and needed help, and then walked with us to our destination. So nice! In NYC I would never expect someone to do that/be scared of them of they did 
- put luggage down but couldn't check in til 3. It started raining
- bought bread, ham, and jarlsburg cheese to make sandwiches. Everything is so expensive!
- decided to go on an adventure. Man at supermarket told us to take the bus into town so we hopped on (didn't pay) and went uptown by accident. We ended up at a mall in an industrial looking part of town. After walking around the mall for a little, we found the same bus going downtown 
- downtown Oslo is beautiful! Mix of old and new. We saw the presidential palace and lots of statues and the port and walked around the shopping streets 
- got over 10 dollar halal food that was gross for dinner. All other dinner options were so expensive. Like 50 US dollars for a pizza. No thanks. 
- came back to the hostel and relaxed. So exhausted!!
