Yesterday evening we arrived in Oslo just in time to watch the sun set as we rode the bus from the airport to the city. At midnight. It was nice because it meant that we could see some of the scenery as we rode along. But it is unnatural and my brain can't handle it. And then it was already getting light again by 1:30 last night when we got in bed. Even now as I type it looks like late afternoon, yet it should be bedtime!
We'll post more later about our day today. It was fun, but the light thing is super weird. Also we are in pretty much constant sticker shock. At McDonalds a single burger costs $20. That's right- for 1/5 the price of our hotel room we could have a hamburger. It's insane. Otherwise Oslo is a really nice place- just, if you ever come here, pack food.
$20 for a HAMBURGER?! on the other hand, now i'm adding "go to a country where the sun doesn't set til midnight" to my bucket list. lol :)
