Railing thru Europe: Stop 11.1 Norway – Oslo

Posted by ourjotterbook on Tuesday, November 30, 2010 · 1 Comment 

When we ventured up the Scandinavian lands, we were prepared to blow a hole in our pockets as we had heard that Scandinavia is notoriously expensive and the knockout of them all is Norway. However, unlike some countries like Italy, Norway is Eurail friendly, meaning we do not need to pay for reservations with our pass. If our Eurail pass does not have an expiry date, we would be happily zipping back and forth across the beautiful Norwegian landscape and its fjords and not have to worry if we’ll have enough time to travel to the other countries before our passes expires!
