Take a chance on .... ABBA

We woke up early (we forgot about the time difference) but we made the best of the early morning, we stood on the deck of the ferry and watched the sun rise

No editing, this is just what we saw

First stop in Stockholm after offloading backpacks of course was the ABBA MUSEUM!!!

We LOVED it! Such a great place, original costumes & awards, so much to look at. You walked no you danced out singing ABBA

Next we went to hang with the Scandic animals at Skansen, a great open air museum with a zoo. It was another warm day (really jinxed myself there) so some animals where in hiding, we skipped a lot of the museum side as we had been to something similar a few days ago.

Just a hug between brown bear brothers

Since we were close by we stopped at the Vasa Museum WOW!!! You walk in past admission and BAM you are staring at an old wooden ship! We're not talking the size of a dinghy where talking full scale 17th century ship that sunk on its maiden voyage in1628. It was amazing my picture does it no justice

We did briefly drop into the Nordic Museum but it was positively boring after the day we had already had, beautiful building though

Great photo of the sun rise over the water. Seeing the old ships is amazing, wait until you see the Viking ships.
