Day 1: Woke up in the beautiful city of Oslo. Today was for coffee shops & wandering streets & visiting the botanical garden, now largely at rest for the winter. I walked to the waterfront & said hello to the sailboats, made my way through the Christmas market, skated on boots across a man-made rink, listening to holiday songs familiar. I warmed up on the rooftop of the renowned Grand Hotel, where Roald Dahl used to stay, best known as the annual venue of the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.
