Stockholm Sweden is Sweet

This port was particularly special because we had our own personal local guide showing us around...my best girl...Camilla! After weeks of taking out my tour book, researching every highlight, trying to figure out the transportation system of every city, it was such a relief to hand the reigns over to an expert. We went to the Vasa museum, which is a museum that displays the only almost fully intact 17th century ship that has ever been salvaged, the 64-gun warship Vasa that sank on her maiden voyage in 1628.

We climbed to the top of the city hall for a 360 view of all of Stockholm. Old town was so wonderful...all these European old towns just fill my soul. 

Then onto the open air museum, with some of the oldest homes in Sweden, traditional swedish food, coffee pasties, reindeer, owls and bears oh my!
