same_skyWe have three days left here in Stockholm and we're trying to figure out what exactly we want to do with them. We've done a lot of shopping, we've done some touristing, but we have sort of decided against going to see Vasa tomorrow due to lack of supreme interest. Everyone has seen it except Whitley and no one really wants to see it again, and Whitley isn't like falling over herself to see it herself, so... it seems kind of silly to trek out there. It's a boat, guys. It sank, and then major amounts of money was pent to pick it back up. It is actually cool; I'm not trying to minimize it, but it's also pretty much something you can just hear the story and see the pictures, if one is fifteen and not personally interested in Swedish history. Anyway, Vasa has been scrapped and we did spend a bunch of time in Gamla Stan today, so.. not sure what we're gonna do tomorrow.
Evie spent the day with Farfar and Farmor today for the first time, which was kind of cool. We went out shopping (and walking!) in the city and then made our way over to M's sister's house. Evie would have H.A.T.E.D. today's trip so it was good timing. I was sort of dreading the whole day, actually, until they asked if she would want to stay with them this morning. We bought a lot of junk. Even Whitley got into the spirit of things and purchased a few items. She's mainly been walking around trying to figure out something to buy, and then falling over in despair at the prices. :)
Yesterday was all about Skansen, which was fun. Skansen is a zoo/open air museum (as they seem fond of pointing out). Evie had fun but she got way too tired. M abandoned us when we left there, heading off to spend a little time with his BFF.
Sometime on Monday, we took enough pictures that they no longer show up on this computer when I try to transfer them. Never saw anything like it, but the computer recognizes the camera but refuses to list the remaining photos. So... I have a great excuse for not posting pictures... at least of the last two days. :) Pictures when we get home, probably more than you really care about seeing.
