Well, we made it from Frankfurt-Hann airport (not really Frankfurt its actually an hour and a half west of Frankfurt) in to Stockholm (not really Stockholm but Nyopking an hour and a half south of Stockholm) last night. We stayed in a nice little hotel since it was 2330 and did not want to risk not finding a room some where else. Got a good meal in our bellys, walked around, and then boarded the train for Stockholm. It is an absolutely beautiful city with so much to see and do. The highlight of the afternoon was stumbling across a barricaded main part of the town completely surrounded by the local police. I guess a guy with either an ax or rifle or both was on the bridge doing something wrong. We walked around the whole area trying to see what was going on and listening for a gunshot. After an hour or so, we went to the train station and booked our trip to Norway. Pretty good deal if you actually pay attention and as some questions. The people here are very friendly. Tonight we met up with a family friend, Per and he showed us around the city for a bit before we went to this awesome restaurant and enjoyed a great Swedish diner and a couple beers. It was a great 3 hours with Per who I had not seen in over 10 years. Tomorrow we will spend more time in Stockholm and some of the museums and hopefully finding a place to stay and then Thursday night we take a night train to Oslo, Norway where we start our Norweigan adventure. I love it up here! The people our great, they almost all speak english and our very kind and approachable. I will definetly be headed back here in the near future! It is bed time for we have to get up early and find a room for the night. Take care and until next time, CIAO!
