Day 3, 29 Jun 2019 (Saturday): Oslo to Aurland

1. Check out from Airbnb. Took NSB train to Oslo S. Agak kelam kabut masa beli tiket kat machine sebab transaction guna CC tak berjaya. Unfortunately, machine cuma terima syiling NOK sahaja, note kertas tak terima. Akhirnya berjaya beli tiket guna PayPal lepas try & error guna CC semua orang: NOK54 per person

3. Drive to Langfossen for 7 hours lepas beberapa kali stop untuk lunch, snap a photo here & there. Nampak view cantik stop ambik gambar, nampak lupins tepi jalan berhenti lagi.

Day 4, 30 Jun 2019 (Sunday): Flam

1. Flamsbana Scenic Train at 7.30 am: 440NOK .
Tips – amik train paling awal pagi2 sebab murah & tak bertembung dengan tourist yg amik pakej Norway in a Nutshell (NIN). Ambik train pagi kosong gila. Ambik seat yang belah kanan sebab view lawa. Kami conquer satu gerabak sebab memang train kosong, so boleh tukar2 seat ikut suka hati everytime nampak view lawa. Train akan stop di Kjosfossen Waterfall for 10 minutes & Myrdal St. for 20 minutes (+-) untuk tunggu train dari Bergen @ Oslo bagi mana2 yang ambik self-guide tour NIN. Nasib kami baik sebab masa train stop di Kjosfossen Waterfall on the way back to Flam, shortly after arrival, music started playing and a woman in red started dancing next to a stone building to the right of the waterfall. The woman in red is dressed as a legendary Huldra (seductive forest creature in Scandinavian folklore). She dances to lure men into the woods to seduce them. Goosebump jugak ler bila tengok orang meliuk lentok kat tengah2 hutan tu kan. Flamsbana train ni took about 2 hours return. Bila sampai kat Flam St, tourist dah mula ramai queue untuk naik next train. So memang advisable untuk ambik trip paling awal plus harga pun lagi murah.

2. Flamsbana Museet (museum), The Flam Railway Documentation Centre: free je masuk.

3. Stegastein ViewPoint: View lawa. Tapi drive ke atas hati2. Kena stop kalau selisih dgn kenderaan lain. On the way turun boleh stop kat view point untuk ambik gambar.

4. Aurland: View lawa tengok rumah tepi fjord

5. Shopping groceries at Spar: NOK65

6. Overnight at Skahjerm Gard, Aurland.

Day 5, 1 July 2019 (Monday): Flam & Gudvangen.

1. Check out from Skahjerm Gard, Aurland.

2. Nærøyfjord Cruise: NOK505
Naik cruise from Flam to Gudvangen, through Aurlandsfjord and Nærøyfjord. Fjord (baca fi-yot) tu adalah high cliff yg asalnya dari glacier dan merupakan UNESCO’s World Heritage Site semenjak tahun 2005. The two fjords are situated 120 kilometres (75 mi) from each other and they are separated by the Jostedalsbreen glacier. The Nærøyfjord areas in this site stretch through the municipalities of Aurland, Lærdal, Vik, and Voss.

3. Tapi kami memang tak bernasib baik dengan cruise, asal naik je mesti hujan. Asal hujan je mesti kami naik cruise. (Same goes to cruise kat Milford Sound NZ)

4. Ada cafe dalam cruise ni, even dah bawak ration jajan tapi bau hot choc sangatlah menggoda selera. Spent NOK170 for 2 hot chocs, 2 muffins & 1 donut. (Bertabahlah)

5. Dari Gudvangen balik ke Flam naik shuttle bus. Harga dah masuk sekali dengan cruise.

6. Drive ke Gudvangen – the port, Viking village (kami tak masuk).

7. Drive ke Voss. Overnight here at Vossesstrand Hotel & Apartment: NOK1090 per night.

8. Lepas check-in, drive to pekan Voss then GPS bawak lalu jalan2 kampung. View dia Subhanallah cantik sangat. Visit Finnesloftet (Norway’s oldest wooden non-ecclesiastical building), Tvinnefossen.

2. We aim for the Trollstigen Mountain Road – the most visited tourist spot with 11 twisted hairpins. But, the fog was too thick, the road was wet, a local advised us not to go, let the fog clear he said. So takde rezeki nak lalu situ. Enjoyed the sceneries along the way tho. Norwegian Scenic Route Valdresflye.

1. Check out from Camp Salstraumen-Elvegard.

Day 13, 9 July 2019 (Tuesday): Travelling day Oslo – Doha – Singapore

1. Oslo Sentral to the airport by Flytoget train as early 5 am sebab NSB train tak available at that time: NOK196 per person.

3. Late lunch at Doha: QAR54

Day 14, 10 July 2019(Wednesday): Singapore to Malaysia

1. Breakfast at Changi: SGD30

2. Taxi Changi to Golden Mile Tower: SGD18

3. Changi to KL – ambik bus kat Golden Mile Tower: RM70.00

Note :

1. Total expenses untuk trip ni adalah RM7,600.00 (+-) per person.

2. Pada awalnya trip ni adalah untuk 4 orang, tapi salah sorang trave mate terpaksa tarik diri for the very last minute atas sebab2 yang tak dapat dielakkan. So, total expenses kena bahagi by 3 sahaja.

3. Kami collect duit tabung NOK500 setiap orang untuk beli groceries & bayar ferry. Siap boleh beli souvenir mug untuk setiap orang lagi dengan duit tabung ni. Another NOK500 untuk personal expenses.

4. Total charge untuk kereta termasuk tol, insurance & additional driver RM3,145.67. Lesen memandu Malaysia boleh guna untuk drive di Norway, so tak perlu buat IDP.

5. Di Sweden, kami beli groceries guna credit card since memang tak tukar duit SEK pun.

6. Fuel, hotel, floibanen & tiket tram/train airport, paid by credit card.

7. Flamsbana train & fjord cruise dah beli siap2 dari Malaysia lagi.

8. Weather kat Norway so unpredictable, every half an hour and every 15km cuacanya berubah2.

9. Semua tempat yang kami pergi sejuk gedi walaupun summer, kecuali kat Oslo je boleh pakai t shirt without jacket & heat tech.

10. Even dah ada itinerary, we still check our route by daily basis. Turns out masa summer banyak jalan yang dah buka, so we can skip route yang kena naik ferry (boleh save agak banyak di situ). Kami finalized itinerari ni around April, so google consider bagi jalan yang available at that time and almost route kena naik ferry.

11. Kami bawak siap2 beras, kicap, maggi, nasi kembara, sambal ikan bilis, daging dendeng, 3 in 1 drinks, bihun etc dari Malaysia. Kat Norway cuma stock up fresh groceries macam telur, sayur, buah, jus, susu & sardin. Kami memang masak kat Norway, makan kat luar cuma untuk lunch yang susah nak bawak bekal like masa jalan2 kat Bergen & Oslo.

12. Time check-in flight kat Oslo the staff insist to see the bus ticket out of Singapore before the check-in process. Kami tak beli siap2 sebab tak tau exact time sampai Changi. Plus hari tu pergi Iceland via Changi jugak, takde pun nak tengok tiket bus. Turns out it depend on the counter staff whether they want to see the ticket or not sebab lepas dah berjaya beli tiket bas, staff kat another counter tak mintak pun tiket bas tu. Poyo je makcik kaunter dengan supervisor kitaorang hari tu.

13. Fuel cost for 4001km journey lebih kurang RM1,500.00. Average harga petrol kat Norway around RM8 seliter.
