“I also visited the Holmenkollen Ski Jump in Oslo. It was fantastic to look from the top of the ski jump (滑雪跳台) and the ski museum was very interesting. I wanted to try a jump but unluckily, it didn’t open when I visited. Anyway, I was very tired and needed a break, so I went back to my hotel and got some sleep.
