Tent packed up again, we walked a while. Again getting a lift proved to be difficult, perhaps as we were now in Norway, but still an hour or so from Oslo, around 70km to go. We gave in to a passing bus, and since we still hadn´t managed to find a place to exchange the money yet, the driver told us we could sort that out when we got to Oslo. 
What this meant was that he tapped a few figures into a calculator and came up with a ficticous price, which seemed a little on the expensive side - but of course this was Norway known for extortion. We paid him and then managed to change up some money. We went to the local Kiwi supermarket where all the staff dress in a tasteless green uniform, and bought danish pastries which are probably the best buy in Norway. We found a park between a church and a river, and fell asleep in the sun for a while. Later we managed to get a lift back to the bus terminal from a Somalian football player just by asking for directions, and he played some good reggae for the short trip. We had planned to go further to Bergen, but all the the bus and train fares seemed so expensive and we were on such a tight budget. We thought that hitching might take too long, as we only had a limited number of days too, so decided at least for today to find somewhere close to camp. We took a 22kr train and bus ride to Sognsvann, which is one of Oslo's own forest and lake area, popular with joggers especially. Having misread the signs, we thought camping was not allowed, although a few tents were to be seen. Despite this we found a place to camp after a short dip in the lake, which was a little on the cold side. Until this point the weather had been great to us throughout the whole journey, with temperatures reaching 30degrees, clear blue skies and not a hint of rain.
Next day Thursday 18th July
