I Made It!

 Europe By CAKristin
June 25th 2007I finally made it to Sweden, and it proved to be quite an adventure to get here. The flights were wholy uneventfull but the airports were hideous. Anyways ... I'm here now, safe and sound.

We are staying in a suburb of Stockholm called Sigtuna. Sigtuna is the oldest setlement that's still around, founded in 980. We're staying on the campus of an informal adult school, something like a continuing education center.

Here's some pictures from around the campus ...

This tower used to be the religous center of campus - they would hold sevices just below it. Now they have services in a really boring looking cement church just behind the tower.

Random art from the small chapel room I stumbled across in the basement of one of the buildings.
