Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday were spent at St. Olav’s University Hospital, where there really wasn’t any opportunity for picture taking.
St. Olav’s University Hospital was the first place to implement the Digital Hospital infrastructure and applications that made up the HP Digital Hospital program.
The days were full of discussions with the folks from the hospital as well as our partner IMATIS.
Thursday was a travel day!
Once we had landed at Oslo Gardermoen airport, which is 40 minute train ride from downtown Olso, we picked up Ray’s rental car and headed out!
We drove for about 2-1/2 hours southwest of Oslo to Porsgrunn to visit the Head Office of our partner IMATIS, where we met with their technical team and discussed their ongoing projects.
By the time we headed back to Oslo, the sun was starting to set and it was fully dark when we drove into the unfamiliar downtown streets with a distinct lack of English road signs! We had been using Ray’s cell phone’s GPS but then even it got confused… we must have circled our hotel block two or three times before we found the way to get to the entrance!
But finally, we were able to check into our hotel… Radisson Blu Scandinavia Hotel on Holbergs gate a short distance from the Royal Palace. A bite to eat at a local pub and it was off to bed!
