I dag dro jeg på båttur på Oslofjorden. Turen varte i to timer og kostet 210 kroner. Først dro vi til vestsiden av fjorden og så Hovedøya, Lindøya og flere andre. Deretter kjørte vi videre langs vestsiden av Nesodden. Så krysset vi fjorden og så Brønnøya, Nesøya og de andre små øyene på østsiden av fjorden. På øyene så vi mange små hytter og sommerhus. Til slutt kjørte vi forbi Bygdøy og kom tilbake til havna foran Rådhuset.

along the west side of Nesodden. Then, we crossed the fjord and saw
Brønnøya, Nesøya, and the other small islands on the eastern side of
the fjord. On the islands, we saw many small cabins and summer houses.
Finally, we went past Bygdøy and come back to the harbor in front of
the City Hall.)
