Interlaken

The name Interlaken means "between the lakes." The town is indeed located between two lakes.
This waterway connects the two lakes, and as it is glacial melt, the water’s color is truly strange. I had never seen water look like this before in person.
I gathered some travel information for the immediate region, and purchased train tickets for the Jungfraubahn the next morning. The trip up to Jungfraujoch will be close to CHF 160 – outrageous considering the rather short distance, and only applicable to the first two departures of the day, but there is not much of a choice on this matter.
Question by A: How Much money should I bring for 1.5 months in Norway?
I purchased a ticket to Oslo and plan on staying for about a month and a half. 2.5wks in Oslo and maybe 2.5 weeks flying to Berlin and training through Europe for 1.5 before flying back to Oslo and returning home. I have a place to stay for free in Oslo, and Berlin. So mainly I would be looking at food and entertainment costs. Airfare/trainfare and maybe a hotel stay or too during my train traveling. About how much money should I have saved for my trip, I will pretty much be backpacking about if I have no where to stay… Thanks!
In US dollars by the way. Thx.

find out how much for a hotel, train etc. then take $ 500-$ 1000 for everything else.

I agree with Cool-O, but I think that for such a long stay, you should bring about 1500$ (Norway is very expensive, due to their high wages). You might additionally, as you said, want to bring some money for train or renting a car (Oslo is small, you can finish it in a couple of days) in case you want to travel around. In six weeks you could see a lot of Southern Norway, especially if you went from town to town.
