The past two days we have had really nice weather and therefor decided to head out during the afternoon to get some more walking in before I head home on Sunday.
Yesterday we went to place called “Fornebu” which isn’t too far from where we live. We had a nice walk in a park called “Nansenparken” which is named after the famous Norwegian polar explorer Fritoff Nansen. The park wasn’t that big, but we don’t walk that fast so it still takes some time before we made a full circle. The park also used to be an old airport and the main path we walked down used to be the run way. After the walk we headed into a small restaurant which was located right beneath the flight tower. It was a small Korean cuisine place and they had all kinds of Korean dishes included chicken ramen.
My father tried a bibimbap while my mother and I had a chicken ramen. When the food arrived I will admit that it didn’t look as astatically pleasing as the ones back home in Belgium. It was also served in a metal bowl which always feels a bit off for me. The broth wasn’t too bad, but the noodles tasted really like the instant ones you get from the store and they were a bit undercooked. Chicken was alright and so were the rest of the veggies. There were no Bok choy which was unfortunate, because I prefer it over green onions. Overall I would rate the ramen a 4/10. It’s sadly the worse one I have had so far in my life, but the rest of the day was nice. Didn’t do much other than watch some TV in the evening with my parents and hang out with my friends.
Today we headed on a bit longer trip. Took the car and drove to a place called “Jeløya” which is a small island outside a city called “Moss”. We started having a nice small lunch at the café and I had a tradition shrimp sandwich served with lettuce, mayo and dill. It was really good and defiantly topped yesterday’s ramen. After we had eaten we had a really nice and long walk along the sea side in lovely sunshine. There were some tough places especially for my dad, but fine for the most part. It was also A LOT of birds just chilling by the waterside. When we had made a full circle we saw a small art exhibit before heading home.
Tonight my sister is planning on cooking us some chicken and broccoli for dinner and we will see if my parents and I will watch some TV in the evening. Tomorrow is my last day and we are planning going down in the city and walk by the harbour. Then on Sunday morning it’s off to the airport.
