I am a geographer. Part of the fun of my studies was that there were plenty of excursions to choose from. In 2001 we drove to Bavaria, Austria and even parts of Switzerland for a ten days trip. I saw the beauty of the Engadine for the first time back then. The Engadine is situated in the southeast of Switzerland, near Austria and northwest of Italy.
At the end of my first 10 day trip to Norway we spent some days in beautiful Oslo. We got lucky with the weather during the trip and especially in the capital. We strolled through the pedestrian precinct and ended at the sea side of the Oslofjord with the stunning Oslo Opera House. Finished in 2008 is raises from the fjord with its glass and Carara marble shape and color. I very much enjoyed this Saturday afternoon end of May 2014 in Norway's capital. You can not only walk around, but on it!...
