Last weekend I was in Asker, and got my Sailing Certificate, during a 4 day sailing trip around the Oslo fjord.

Thursday
I took the airplane to Oslo today, 12:00 so I did not have to get up so goddamn early. After taking the airport train all the way to asker, I had to wait there for 4-5 hours until the course actually started.

Once started they went over basic navigation, and when dusk hit we started sailing from Asker down to Soon, navigating by lighthouses. We arrived in Son around 02:00-03:00  and went straight to sleep.

Friday
We woke ut at 08:00 And  had some more theory, following sailing from Son downwards to Engelsvik. Not much wind today, so several time we had to use the engine.

Saturday
Very favorable wind today, 10-12 m/s.. We sailed out to the exit of the Oslo fjord, then turned and sailed downwind past Tønsberg, and a bit up the Drammen fjord to Holmsbu where we stayed the night.

Top speed was at around 8.2 knots

Sunday
We sailed back to Asker today, pretty good wind conditions, and we arrived on schedule. Took the plane back to Trondheim and arrived back home at around 00:30
