Hej hej! Jag är nu i Österrike efter ett underbara vecka i Sverige! In other words, hello! I'm now in Austria after an awesome week in Sweden! Let's not beat around the bush, but get right to it.

A Church

If you look at the road, this is actually one of the nice roads, where the stones are relatively flat, and not jutting straight up into your feet.

Stockholm

That side was more industrial Stockholm, of course with a cruise ship.

Scandinavia

Typical houses...they were outrageous for Libor and Martyna. Look a bit familiar to me...

Finland

Huh??

Finland

Couldn't resist.

A Ship

In the midst of all the cruise ships, we came across this bad boy.

Kungliga Slottet

Another side of the Palace.

Gustav Adolf

One of the major kings from Sweden's history, though I don't know why.

Stockholm

Water water water.

Kungliga Slottet

Just a small place, you know, I don't need anything fancy.

Kungliga Slottet

The Palace yet again.

Stockholm

One of the normal views of the city.

Stockholm

I'm running out of captions.

In Stockholm [and no, not at 1pm].

Sunset

It's a very, very nice city to say the least.

Sunset

Can you beat this?

Sverige

Sweden.

Museums

Vasamuseet is on the left, and Norska Museet is on the right.

Stockholm City

A little taste of Stockholm City at dusk.

Walking on Ice

Martyna and Libor taking a stroll on some ice that was more than 2 feet thick. Yea, Scandinavia is cold in winter.

My friend Mika from UVM is studying in Athens this semester and we've been talking about arranging a little exchange between Austria and Greece in fact... Or I can visit Maria and Lela. "If my good leg don't go down, I don't go down."

Hey,
Hey, What a great blog. But it sure looked cold. If I ever went I think spring or summer would be the time. You should be starting a book for other exchange students.....all the ins and outs of how to see countries and especially how to get seats on planes...........Love ya Nanny

It sounds like you had a great time.....to bad you missed the Herring and the Moose for dinner. Sweden is a nice country to visit. Perhaps you should visit in summer as they really have one. Keep up the blog as we do read it carefully. A minor correction....the Vasa heeled, not keeled. Also it good to hear from you.
