Sunday walk, 11 km = 2 hours

Beautiful weather in Oslo this Sunday. Around Zero C degrees and ideal for a city stroll. The sun gives a lot of reflections in the Oslofjord.First interval from home to the bottom of Frognerkilen (2.0 km) where the swans are doing their morning toilet before they recognize the speed of the ducks heading for people feeding them breakfast on the other side.
Alongside Frognerstranda (Frogner Beach) we walk east towards the City Hall passing the Kiel Ferry and Aker Brygge.
Under the walls of Akershus Fortress we find an excellent view to the west catching Aker Brygge with Tjuvholmen to the left. From the cruise quay we walk around Vippetangen with the fish houses and the ferry to Denmark.
Arriving the new Operahouse, we have added another interval of 5 km. The reflections in Bjørvika are the last contact with the water and we turn to the left and walk home (4 km) via Karl Johans gate. Total stroll more than 16 km during two hours. Satisfied.

Jeg visste ikke at du hadde begynt å jogge - 8,15 km/t er MEGET rask gange

Selv ahr ejg sittet fem timer på et hotell og spist julemiddag med hele slekta til gubben . Føler for en luftetur selv, men 16 km blir vel i meste laget;)

takk for titten, ha en ny strålende uke.

sometimes is it difficult to add intervals into a sum
But still a good speed
