Day 16 - Oslo, Norway, Aug 10th 2006

In Oslo, we perfected our method of visiting a new city.

First, we would find an Internet cafe and catchup on our blogging and emails. Maxie would play computer games, usually Runescape, and inevitably boys would stop by and look at the screen and say “I play that too!”

Next, we would find a coffee cafe and get a drink. Maxie likes capuccinos, but it is often difficult in Europe to find a cafe that will make them with decaf coffee, so we sometimes end up at Starbucks.

Then, we do some souvenir shopping for Maxie. He likes to get a shot glass, keychain or some other trinket with the city name on it, so he will have something to remember it by. Sometimes Suzanne will also look for some crystal.

Finally, we look for a chocolate shop that has local chocolates. For Oslo, we found some Kong Haakon’s, which are really good Norwegian chocolate.
