We had just finished a day of island-hopping. I was seriously very tired. But in order not to miss out on going the must-go places, we headed to Frognerseteren for their world famous apple pie...
So we happily went inside to choose our stuff and decided to settle outside cos the scernery was really cool (so was the weather actually). And here is our spread:
Actually everything went on well UNTIL we finished our quiche. Then a "little" friend decided to join us. "little" is in inverted commas cos they are NOT as SMALL as what we see back home. It was the "friendly" sparrow. Over here, they come with streaks of blue as well.
As we started on our apple pie, this fellow came to peck at our crumbs. Which was totally ok with me as I told The Queen to put that plate as FAR AWAY from me as possible. But this "little" fellow was a GREEDY one. Being unsatisfied with the quiche, it decided to fly towards my apple pie. Of course I shrieked. LOUD. The Queen graciously shooed it away. But it came back time and again. And this time, it attempted to attack my hot chocolate. That was the last straw. I SCREAMED as it flew towards my cup and The Queen laughed! *sigh* Yes. She's still my friend...
She recons that that was the 1st time she saw a bird fly, froze in mid-air and then backed away. Meanwhile, lots of people were gathering around us - busy taking pictures of the bird and smiling cos we managed to help them stop it in its flight. *sigh*
The Queen decided that she has had enough of my screaming and I've had enough of such close proximity with feathered ones... And so we headed indoors:
Yes the safety of the four walls...
The Queen looking so sweet and calm after everything...
I had to finished my drink to calm my nerves and get over the trauma...
