Only problem with Norway and LEGO, besides the high price, is that the new
sets comes out very late here, and we cant order from Shop@home either :(

But as Thomas said, you can find LEGO in almost every toyshop, actually I
have not seen a toyshop in Norway without LEGO for sale...

I think almost every Norwegian has been playing with LEGO in their
childhood.

Just returned from Norway.
Unlike UK there were lots of toyshops with Lego.
I found one just minutes from Bergan train station, and Voss - just a • small town
had two toy shops with a good selection of Lego.
In the UK toy shops are always closing down - in Glasgow the largest city • in
Scotland there is no toyshop selling Lego.
The lego was more expensive than the UK, but so are most things, I'm sure • the
salaries are larger.
The trains were interesting running on time and some very new ones on the • Bergan
to Oslo line.
A very enjoyable holiday.

Anyway, I guess you will find prices shocking. :-)

If you deside to go to Oslo you should visit the Stenersen museum.
At the moment they have a 5 meter tall sculpture of LEGO.
It's made by Kjersti Andvig and is a sculpture of her own body.
It's made of more than 160.000 bricks.
