... l'on se fait des maisons au fin fond du Canada peut-ętre... en tout cas c'est pas mal beau! Aprčs ces 3 heures de bateau je pars vers l'Est, il fait nuit, en pleine foręt, et įa glisse par terre (j'ai de grosses courbatures aux cuisses ā force de marcher en pingouin)! je retrouve un bras de mer complčtement gelé et je décide de le remonter, c'est dommage la nuit cache la beauté du lieu, je m'obstine ā (essayer de) prendre des photos... aprčs tout ce n'est qu'une question d ...

... 1912, but some cool interactives as well) * The Museum of Science and Technology (excellent, with heaps of quality displays and hands on activities - space, the telephone, cars, bikes & motorcycles, mining, the computer) * We also got a 50 minute Royal Canal Tour on the ferry with an ear plug guide as well. Quite an interesting little trip, we went past a house belonging to one of the members of ABBA - although they wouldn't say who! 3rd Day: We ...

... hours getting a good feel of the various islands that make up the city. I find myself lost in the alleys of the old city of Gamla Stan and love the architecture and small cobble stone roads. I turn a corner and next thing I know, I'm at the palace watching the changing of the guards, which is quite a processional! Another few small alleys and I pop out into a cute square around the entrance to the ...

... wasn't enough so we went to a Swedish fast food chain called Max, which ended up being pretty good. We had our train leave early the next day so we left Stockholm with a few good memories and lots of pictures.

Hope everyone else is doing good and I'll be sure to try and update it more often to avoid these long winded entries! Cheers, Evan

They've even reconstructed faces of lost sailors from skeletons found in the ship. Could have spent longer here, but Rosa was getting impatient to get to... g. Junibacken: I'm only vaguely aware of Pippi Longstocking (she has long red braids) but apparently she's huge in Sweden ...

... exhibits on not only the peace prize winners but also the economic, physics, chemistry, medicine winners. Many familiar people but a lot who we learned about there. More museums and walking around followed until we finally had to eat some dinner. I (Sara) am following Julius' eating habits on the trip. That is, eating twice a day (you all wonder how he stays so trim?). It seems to be working so far, with a hearty breakfast and a large dinner. It does save ...

I hit Stockholm to catch up with some old family friends.. However, the ferry ride over was a highlight.. Bloody crazy, I can see why its called the booze cruise.. Yet Stockholm was in full party mood with the the highschoolers celebrating graduation.. What a time...

I left from Seattle at 8AM July 5th after staying up for 3 days straight and arrived in Stockholm, Sweden at 8AM July 6th. I took a 40 minute bus ride from the airport to Stockholm's central station. Then found my way to the youth hostel, which was ...
