Time for some history and some more culinary discoveries today! And for the last time this trip, a run…
There is no breakfast served in the hotel, but in same building there are a couple of options available. My first morning in Oslo proper, I went to Spor av Nord, for an egg salad sandwich and a kardemommebolle.
Then I was off to the Norsk Folkemuseum. Like Bokrijk in Belgium, it’s an open-air museum, filled with buildings from all over the country, taken apart at their original location, and carefully put together again, thus saving them for posterity.
Back in the centre, it was time to try some of that famous brown cheese—brunost—and apparently it is quite good on a waffle. So I went to Haralds Vaffel, and asked for the ‘superclassic vaffel’. Not bad at all!
Tim Wendelboe is a well-known name in the coffee world, so obviously I had to have a coffee there!
And since just the waffle was a bit light for lunch, I also stopped at Syverkiosken for a pølse med lompe, a hotdog in a potato flatbread.
Before my last run, I still had time to try two more bars: Brygg Oslo and Café Fiasco.
But then I really had to get changed and catch a tram to the run start. Since it was Oslo H3’s run #2001, it took inspiration from the Kubrick film, and was titled “A Hash Odyssey!” We were very lucky with the weather, and had some great views over the water.
