i didn’t find out until it was too late, but let this be your fair warning: expect to pay two to three times expected prices (i.e., compared to other countries) when in Norway. (on a positive note, if you’re short on cash, debit\/credit cards are widely accepted; American Express limited, but give it a shot.) i think this is turning out to be the most expensive country i’ve ever visited, topping Switzerland and Japan.<\/p>\n
