Daytrip to Oslo!

Last Sunday Jeanette and I made our way to Oslo to attend a Science Fiction conference at the University of Oslo! (guess whose idea that was). Anyway the con was really not what we expected... it was more of a series of movies with discussion panels, but still it was quite fun... although we only stayed for one movie. It was quite nice to see the UiO campus... I really hope that I can go there next fall! Anyway after we were done on campus we decided to walk to the Vigeland Sculpture park in downtown Oslo and check out some other sites such as the Royal Palace. We had fantastic weather which was great since its been raining pretty much non stop for most of October... so every little ray of sunshine is much apreciated!
Thats all for now!

The Nobel institute, no Chinese dissidents hiding in here!



This sculpture just screams "happy fathers day!"
