This view is of only a portion of the side to the Fram, a sturdy and beautiful boat which carried many men to the Arctic region and on which they lived for many months. If you ever visit Oslo, a trip to this museum is well worth the effort. You can go inside the boat and see the exact places where the men ate their meals, where they slept and where their dogs were housed. Really interesting.
This Norwegian-by-marriage did not actually go to the Arctic on this vessel, but did graciously consent to give me a wave from the port gunwale!
BTW, I have changed the time thing on my camera, so you will now know when I actually took a photo! The time given on the previous photos is Fair Oaks time - sorry!
