The best thing about Sundays is waking up late, drinking coffee in bed and doing something together as a family. We usually pick a route and buy some potato nan from our local Indian place (Punjab) and then walk to a coffee place. We´ve been talking a lot about following the river Aker upstreams, back in the day it used to be quite shabby, but now they´ve cleaned it up really nicely and we didn´t meet any drug addicts or dealers in our way. From Grønland it´s probably a half an hour walk to The Food Court- Mathallen, where we chose to have our coffee today. On the way, Sam had a bath or two, grazed the fresh grass and leapt around like a bunny.
Alongside the river, we spotted many old factories housing quirky terraces, design shops and apartments. Pretty funky!
Sunday markets are popular in Norway and you can sell your own clothes or buy some new, in addition to being able to enjoy a home-made waffle and a cup of coffee in the sun.
Finally, The Food Court. Although it was chilly and a bit rainy when we´d left, by the time we got there the weather had turned sunny and really warm.
A cortado is a must when in Oslo! My fave!
Relaxing with dad is the best treat in the world.
“Oslove” (Oslo Love) appeared in the aftermath of 22nd July, when Norway as a nation suffered from an antihero´s blow to its core. You´ll find it everywhere, it´s a way of expressing solidarity and love towards our multicultural city and its inhabitants.
Really jealous of all the people who have a balcony! Grrr! 😉 On our way home we bought some watermelon to cool down and now I´m ready for a nap. 😉 xxx, Alina
