Germany trip- Heidelberg

16th July
Today is a sunny day
Hui Ling, Jason and Dorothy went to Europa Park
It is an amusement park
and it has quite an interesting concept
The whole place is based on Europe
So there is Russia, Paris etc etc
and in the town, u can find the food and rides that is so called unique to the country
Well the reason I din go is it cost 30 Euro
Quite expensive and I am not willing to pay for it

In the end, I travelled alone to Heidelberg
Well I kind of forgot to mention my train ride from Berlin to Freiburg
What happened was the train was an overnight train
We din get sleeper so we had to sit in the cabin of 6 for like hours
AND there is a stopover where we had to change train
So in the end, I din get enuff sleep

Anw I went Heidelburg and like it there
There is nice view and it is quite small actually
I went to the castle and the old town
It gives you a very good feeling


The Old town
Very small and it gives me a feeling that everyone knows everybody
BUT behind these walls are shops and it actually feel kind of touristy


The castle
This looks nice but actually the castle are already in ruins


Here's the bridge that connects the two part of towns together

germany trip- Berlin

Sorry guys I know this is a bit late but here is the update on my travelling
Will keep it simple and show more pics instead

15th July
took the flight from Oslo to Berlin and reached here at like 11pm
Super tiring
and I realised we went to the budget terminal which is soo far out
Took train to reach the main station, HBF

My bag was super duper heavy but Thank God jason helped me with it
We got to queue long to put in the locker
Water here is sooo expensive!!
I guess I got a shock!
The one I bought is like nearly 3 SGD!!! Boohoo
lunch was like 15 sg for a plate of salty noodle and fried chicken
I miss the food in sg!! Bring me back!!!
After that Jason Hui Ling and I went to walk around Berlin
We went to Charlie Checkpoint, Berlinder Dome, etc
This city is soo full of history
Will be coming back here again so looking forward to it

here's me acting like a bear
Look behind me and you can see the cleavage of a woman
well the ads here are realli ehmmm.... u noe

Brandengurg Gate.. nice place
Much history here but I will not bore you
I like this
Berlinder Dome
Very nice inside and looks great on the outside too

Last Few days..... and REGRETS

Today is gg to be my last day in Oslo, Norway!!!
I feel quite sad as I am typing this
I grew to love the weather and the people here
The people are a bit shy and reserved but Once they open up to you, they are nice

I have been quite busy these few days with packing
PLUS since I am staying in BSN, i got to clean the room
They are quite strict with this and I got to scrub everything till it is clean
My roomie and I had to seperate the differnt jobs
Also today(sat 14th july) I woke up late!
Well technically I slept only at 3 since I was washing the stove etc
Then supposed to wake up at 8 to go Folkemuseum!

In the end, Hui Ling and I clean till like 3
Natalia(the person in charge) din even come!!!
My plan was to go to Folkemuseum
In the end, din even get to go!!!

Some of the regrets that I have is the lack of places to visit!
I wanted to visit Nobel Peace Centre but din manage to go
PLUS the Folkemuseum...
SIANZzzz

In the end, i stayed in hall and read comics
and play games
What a great way to end my last day in BJ!!!

Anyway I will be travelling to Germany next
I will be going to Berlin, Munich, Dresden, Freiburg, Nuremburg
YAY!!
BUt also regret tt din hav more time
but i guess got to wait till I got more money
heehee

Neste Statjon, Nydalen

Finally I have finished my individual assignment
Not sure what I have done is correct
BUT watever
The title for today is actually Next station, Nydalen
The subway is called T-bane here
and Nydalen is the stop name
Woke up earlier
Finally one weekday free and I went out with Qi Hui
We went to the National Gallery
There were many paintings etc
I even saw Munch "Scream"
But one thing confused me
If there is one in the Munch Museum which I didn't go, how come there is another one?
Is there like conterfeit or wat?
Oh well the whole place is very nice
However i was not allowed to take photos....
SIGH
Think time passes by really fast
Soon I got to go home
I think everything is really fast and I don't really have time to breathe
BUT I am quite missing home and the food in sg!
Looking forward to going back soon

Busy week

Have been busy this week
Sorry din update my blog
Supposed to do my individual assignment now
BUT i am too lazy and in no mood to do
Have to write 5-7 pages long on Norwegian culture
Will rushed it out after this
Here's a sneak peek into this week

5th July
In the evening, my friends and I went to the Norwegian cultural evening
It is quite interesting
There are dances, stories and food

Here's a pic of the dancing
As you can see, they are wearing traditional costumes



For food, we had sour cream porridge, flatbread and some preserved meat like salami
The porridge was good...only if you put tons of cinnammon and sugar
The bread was thin and crispy.. nice
but the meat was super salty
but not bad.. got free meal.. heehee

6th 7th July
A group of us went to Bergen to see the fjord there
The place is quite nice
On the way there, we have some good view
Here's one of the pic

Isn't this nice?
Blue sky.. snow... this tells you how cold I am here
It is summer yet there is snow!!

Anyway once we reached Bergen, went to the hostel
In the end we got an apartment
It is quite nice for a hostel
Next stop is the fish market
We got to eat some prawns
Though not very fres, it satisfies our craving for seafood!!

here's the guy distributing the prawans...
the guy behind posed for me... hehe

Anyway the sky was still bright at like 10.30 at night
We walked around till like 12??
I was soo tired and just slept like a log when I reached the hostel

The next day, we went on a fjord cruise
I was quite sad coz the fjord was not as fantastic as I thought
Also, QI hui and Adi went for the Norway in a nutshell and they told me it was good
Should have went there coz you can take the Flam railway
That has one of the best view supposedly
Also they went on a hike and fjord cruise too!
I think I will come back next time
but must save more money

Anyway this is the fjord
Quite nice lah..not bad
The water is glittering under the sun and you can see the reflection and stuff


Here's me enjoying the cool breeze...


This is the view of Bergen from the top of the mountain


8th July
Today there is supposed to be a BBQ in Hovedoya
It is one of the Oslo fjord Island
but I was really disappointed
The view not nice
The beach very dirty
and it RAINED!!!
In addition I got a quiz tm to study for!!
Oh well there is smthg nice there at least
see the pic below?

There's some ruins on the island
Think quite nice

here's me posing with some wild flowers


9th July
Today there is the quiz and I realised everyone is Doing the same qn!!
Oh well watever
There is sooo many articles to read and I am just hoping to pass
Anyway after quiz, we went to Grunnerloka to celebrate
Went in to a Middle East restaurant to eat there
The food is quite good!!
Here's me looking ready to eat the food

Ok update till now
