Stockholm Day 2

Next stop, Sweden. 
Our first stop was at the Vasa Museum (probably one of the coolest things I have ever seen) The museum houses the most fully intact 17th century warship that has ever been salvaged. The ship sank on its maiden voyage in 1628 because it was too top heavy. It was preserved by mud until it was brought up and housed at this museum. So cool...

Lunch at town square in old town

We just happened upon this quant little square

We hopped on a local ferry to tour Stockholm's archipelago. The tourist sightseeing captains were on strike so this was our only way to see them. The ferry took 4 hours round trip stopping at little docks all through out the islands




Did I mention that we wore this kid out?
