Scandinavian design can be startling when seen in large amounts. I remember when I landed in Iceland, my first thought at seeing the airport was "what if they had a war and Ikea won?".

There'd be a lot more common sense.

OSL Gardermoen is a very new airport, and I think it won some awards for its design. I actually did find it, Douglas Adams be damned, rather pretty. Lots of nice wood accents.

And while I'm here, "the Flytoget" is redundant, since the "-et" ending is a definite article. Not that I speak Norwegian or anything.

The wood is a nice touch. It reminds me of living like a yuppie, as opposed to living like a prisoner.

dcoombs February 5 2007, 19:26:02 UTC

Exactly.

Awesome graffiti.

sfllaw February 5 2007, 19:10:54 UTC

That's not graffiti, it's actually brass inlaid into the paving stones.

dcoombs February 5 2007, 19:27:29 UTC

You did post a link to actual graffiti, though.

sfllaw February 5 2007, 20:23:08 UTC

So I did. Senility here I come!

your posts are always so good!

but you should talk more about gaysians! also, NOT ENOUGH BICEPS!

sfllaw February 5 2007, 20:24:01 UTC

That is because I am not working out at the gym, so I don't have the biceps for you to admire. However, I've been inviting bicep-advantaged fellows to my parties, doubtless you've noticed them!

I was sad that your trip to Norway coincided so neatly with my trip to Ontario. But I'm glad you enjoyed it and are back safe.

sfllaw February 5 2007, 20:28:00 UTC

It is too bad. It would have been lovely to see you again, if I were in town.

Actually, I live in Québec, so I'd still have a little ways to travel.

relisabeth February 8 2007, 04:25:58 UTC

Right, but you do have parental units and a friend or two in Toronto.......

It would have been nice to see you, and there were random mutterings about a trip to Quebec, until I pointed out that you weren't there.

sfllaw February 8 2007, 17:25:56 UTC

Next time, then?
