Arnie drove the family to Oslo for a long weekend. We stayed in a pension, which was a kind of guest house or boarding house, but in Scandinavia really a hotel with common bathrooms on each floor. Ours in Oslo had a sink in each room but the toilets and showers were down the hall. We saw the Royal Palace, the Viking Ship Museum, and downtown Oslo, but did not get to the Kon-Tiki Museum, though Arnie bought slides of it.
