Stockholm @ Dusk
Walking over the bridge near the palace So we failed to book accomodation for the weekend...again lol. I guess you can't teach a medium age dog new trix >.< So we came to the Stockholm instead of Gothenburg as we intended. Our backpackers was quite nice as a matter of fact so we were happy =) A brief exploration found us a 30 kron bar which, although it is AU$4.45 its 500 mL which is amazingly cheap for the land we are in (hail satan!). We then managed to cook dinner for ourselves!! Im not really sure what this process entails anymore, when mentioned to me i thought they meant home delivery but it turns out that it is some kind of ritual where you generate complete food for yourself after buying various component ingrediants. Who knew you could even do that?
We went for a wander the next day and checked out what is apparently the most parklanded city in europe! It is quite parklanded so thats good, no strongly worded letters are necassary....this time. But ive got my eye one you sweden!!! /glare. One our wonderings through one such park we managed to get a glimps of Germain Clement and Arj Barker yogging, which was
Teh royal palace
To either side, looked cool so i added it larf a good time for me!. Then we found a big kids parkland with old swedish village replicas and a zoo so we went to that. Was also a good time for me lol. We ran into a couple of aussies who lived in town that night and they took us around to a few bars. I maneged to quite literally wrap my gums around possibly the worst thing ever. Since booze costs so much in scandinavia they get balls of tabacoo and put it under your lip. It is called snooze and it is filthly, so we tried it lol. Having never had an ounce of nicotine in my body, i was quickly rewarded with a insane headpspin so i spat that out. Experience check!
Next day was rainy and cold so we didnt feel like doing much. We settled on going to the nobel prize museum which we figured we could only do in stockholm. It is cool, learning about the history of it all, and some stories of the people. Like einstein who wanted a divorce so he took his 14 million krono prize and paid his wife to divorce him lol. I found a cool english
The holm at night
I near where i took the dusk one lol...it might look good for you guys?? bookstore to get moar boox and then we went home and got to catch some of the eurovision song contest which was going down in Oslo (yea we missed it but im glad lol). A german chick won it (go yermany) with a song about love and satellites, thats something we can all enjoy. But i did think eurovision was going to be amazing quality performers but apparently that was silly of me to think.... they pretty much all sucked ...alot, go figure??
That was pretty much that. Sorry about the delays of these but computers, time and photo upload ability have really limited my blogging input.
Hope everyone is totally sweet still,
Many quality love units,
