Sweden



Loved Stockholm!! This the only cold and rainy day we had the hole trip. This city was so easy to get around. 1st we went to the Royal Palace and saw the changing of the guards. Walked through The Great Square (where the blood bath in 1520 when Denmark invaded Sweden) it's a beautiful park now with outdoor shopping and reasturants. Took a bus to the Vasa ship Maritime Museum where the only viking ship is that is fully recovered from the ocean. Made our way back Walking in and out of shops and at the same time hoping to find the Ice Bar, with no luck. Sad the Ice Hotel is closed/ melted too for the summer. They rebuild one every winter.
