Stockholm

sunny

After our short time in Turku, we said goodbye to our friend Dan and boarded the ferry back to Stockholm. Unlike the outgoing leg, this boat was not quite so comfy (air conditioning on overdrive didn't help) and even worse than that, it was full of Moomins! Apparently, they are still big in Finland, to the extent there is even a Moominworld. After 11 long and painful hours, we arrived in Stockholm and went straight to our hostel where we crashed for the night.

The following day, we headed to Stockholm airport to meet Heather's mother as she was joining us for our time in Sweden before heading to the centre of the Old Town. This is the most picturesque part of Stockholm and has many side streets, some no more than 1 metre wide. I managed to pick up a decent newspaper as well, so I could catch up with whats happening around the world.

By the next day, we decided that Stockholm (although pretty) didn't have a lot to offer so we spent a day relaxing in the park and planned our next leg. After some head scratching, we decided the following day we were off to Örebro
