Nest week I’ll be in Oslo for JavaZone 2007. I’ve managed to schedule a few days for sightseeing, but unfortunately I’ve had very little time to prepare for it. This is actually normal for me: I usually don’t read up on a place until I’ve been there. Everything should be a surprise!
Any suggestions for what I should see? Are there any local parks or nature preserves that offer good birding? Is Fall migration still going on there, or is it too far north? I’m hoping it’s good for at least a few life birds. :-)
I’ll have my wife with me, so I won’t be able to spend my whole trip birding. :-) What else should we do. Are there museums, castles, neighborhoods, festivals, stores, etc. that I should see while I’m there? Any food I should eat? Any particular place that’s just interesting to walk around?
We’ll be staying in central Oslo, and probably won’t have time to get far outside the city this trip.
Also, what should we where? I’m planning on bringing a jacket, and a sweater or two, but should I drag along my heavy winter coat? Just how cold or hot does it get at this time of year?
