"Overnight we headed across the Skagerrak Strait towards the Oslo fjorden, In the early hours of the morning we passed East of Faerder Island where, at 6:04 we boarded the pilot as we entered the Oslo Fjord."I happened to wake up at 6:00 a.m. and witnessed a boat headed toward us, but I didn't know it was The Pilot. I confess I was a little unnerved at a small boat approaching us with such speed. My brother explained how they have to 'jump' aboard even in rough seas. Helly Hansen's descendents?
Our balcony had a perfect view of Akershus Castle (dates back to 1299). Notice the modern building in the background. Such symmetry despite the centuries passing between architecture style.
Time to disembark & meet up with our tour guide.
