Please wait...

Another statue from an Aker Brygge restaurant. This young lady is ready to serve you something cold to drink.

At the restaurant

This couple is a pair of statues sitting by a table at a restaurant at Aker Brygge. It looks like they have a nice time, but I wonder what their bill will be like when they decide to leave. :-)

Aker Brygge IV

This is an other view at Aker brygge from the harbor as I took while waiting for leaving to Oscarsborg.

This is my last picture here for now. My sister will post tomorrow again! Thanks!

Aker Brygge III

This is the view from Aker Brygge. What you see is Oslo City Hall which were showed earlier.

Woman in red hat

This is also from Aker Brygge.

This statue of a nude woman in a red hat, was very popular among the passers by. From the restaurant were I sat, I suddenly noticed this gent sitting down to pose next to the statue. His wife laughed so hard she hardly could take any photos. His friends were all laughing too. Quite amusing!

Aker Brygge II

This is another photo from Aker Brygge. This is from the "atrium", if you could call it that. Kids love to play in this area near the fountain.

Aker Brygge

Aker Brygge ("the Aker quay") is a huge shopping mall and area for restaurants. It's situated in the Oslo harbour area. From 1854-1982 this was an engineering workshop and shipbuilding yard. In 1986 the first part of Aker Brygge was ready, and later it has expanded several times. The area has approx. 40 restaurants, many shops, a cinema, a comedy theater and many apartments. The buildings have a marine look to them. I wouldn't say they're beautiful, but it's still an interesting place.

In the summer weekends especially, people are swarming here, eating out with their friends and collegues. When the weather is nice, like it was this Saturday, it's great to sit outdoors enjoying a meal (and a cigarette). No smoking is allowed inside.
