Sweden in October

First weekend in October we made our way to Stockholm to visit Phoebus and have dinner with the LBS Stockholm Trek folk

Max's Junior Burger... best deal in Stockholm (this is one EXPENSIVE city) and oh so yummy... Phoebus was our saviour and bought us burgers and garlic fries for dinner on our way back
Stockholm is gorgeous and pristine... especially nice to have our knowledgeable guide Phoebus to show us around
A must see! Vassar Museum... basically a poorly constructed but super ambitious warship sailed for 20 minutes and then sank by a strong wind (reinforcing the importance of physics).. because of the level of salt in the water wood worms can't survive so it's pretty much in pristine condition
This is what it looked like in its original form... I personally like the classic dark wood look better
This ship is HUGE
Even the cold air doesn't stop people from sitting outside and people watching... according to Phoebus this was also a square where there was a massacre...I have forgotten the details
Smallest street in Stockholm... good thing we're skinny
One of my favorite places to visit in a foreign city... the supermarket! Stockholm'swas super interesting... tunnbrod...sort of like big ol crackers
Interestingly...they like to vacuum pack everything... probably because space is even tighter here than London
Being a homogenous society perhaps they don't know why some people may find this offensive...
We went to _________(means frog) with LBS it was soooo goood....
Swedish delicacy plate...herring is surprisingly good
Fish soup... fancy fish soup that is so good....this place had amazing bread too!
THE BEST place for Cinnamon Rolls and Cardamom Rolls
Skansen...its a park of old farmsteads and structures around Sweden, Finland and Denmark, its meant to give people a view of what life was like back then
That isn't snow, its the leftover glass from the glass blower building
It was arts and craft weekend which meant all of the craftspeople were there to show how things were done back then. I think the cobbler looks a lot like St.Nick =)
The good students... Phoebus and Eugene chatting up the engraver
and then the printer
Phoebus' favorite place in Skansen....and I suspect favorite place in Stockholm
The home of fresh, home made Tunnbrod!
Skansen also has a mini zoo... I've never seen an owl's head actually turn 360...until today! CRAZY
Oldest structure in Sweden... I think it was a mill house
Eugene and Phoebus tempting a moose with some leaves
Skansen... gorgeous view of a beautiful (but expensive) city! Thanks Phoebus for hosting and showing us around!
