Day 2 Friday, Museums, Boats and More

We slept well in our lovely room, the bed is one of the best that I have slept on that wasn’t mine.  We even have a sauna in our room, though it has been too hot during the day to use it.



We started our day with a buffet at the hotel, very nice! A lot different than the US breakfast with meats, cheese, pickled herring, smoked salmon (not the dry kind), lots of yogurts, Swedish pancakes and the regular fare of eggs, bacon, fruit and breads.

We then went on a Hop-on-Hop off boat across the waterway to the Vasa Museum.  Oh My! It is an amazing sight hopefully some of the pictures will tell the story better than my writing.  We then went to the Nordic Life Style Museum, the Spirit Museum (History of Absolut and Champagne), Antiquities Museum.  We then just explored on foot the various alleys and pedestrian areas of Stockholm.  It is a very comfortable city to walk around though you really need to have good shoes as the cobblestones are killer.
