noway in a nutshell
 

i arrive in oslo thursday evening - is it worth it to jump on a train that evening to do norway in a nutshell for 3 days? or is the train ride worth the wait for daylight?<BR>thanks

your message is completely unintelligible. Norway in a nutshell? South, North? mountains? cities? <BR><BR>Come again?

There is no point on doing Norway in a nutshell in total darkness!! Norway in a nutshell can be done in two days, leaving 1 day for touring Oslo.<BR><BR>Look at this resent thread<BR>http://www.fodors.com/forums/pgMessages.jsp?fid=2&tid=34371404<BR><BR>(A really great trip for active people is to take the train to Finse, rent a bike and ride to Flam. Then take the high-speed boat to Bergen. But November is way to late. It should be done from late June to September)<BR>

You seem to be talking about the night train portion between Oslo-Flam. As I recall the scenic part is limited to the high glacier country on the last quarter of that segment. Nice, but NOT worth sacrificing a day of being actually among the fjords. If in a rush, get over the hump of the country by night and savor fjord country with the added days.

thank you helen and jt - advice taken.
