First off I went to the city and caught the #30 Bus toward Bygdoy (the west part of the city) to visit the Viking ship museum.
It was very interesting. I couldn't believe how ornately carved the ships were. The ships in the museum were burial ships from sites that had been discovered and excavated. This ship is from
There were also artifacts from the ships such as carts, sledges, burial chambers, cooking implements, furniture and the like
.
I also went to the Frogner Park. This park is a huge park with nude sculptures throughout. The center point of the park is a huge monument called the Monolith.
A couple of the statues I found interesting were first, a statue of a baby throwing a temper tantrum that the locals call the Angry Baby and another with a man and several small children the locals call Daddy had too much to drink again.
