SURROUNDING A COURTYARD
is an assortment of traditional Scandinavian buildings,
including a replica of the 14th-century
Akershus Castle
, now home to princess-hos-
ted character meals. The major attraction is the boat ride
Maelstrom.
It's hard to say no to the mouthwatering pastries
Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe
in Norway. This is my favorite stop at the end of the day to pick up the next
day's breakfast.
