Stockholm, Sweden, Sun 01 June 2008

Final day in Stockholm and no conference so I headed into the city with the NetCel guys for a bit of sight-seeing. Such a nice city and I enjoyed just walking around it. We mainly wondered around the Old Quarter which was very cute.

We saw the Palace and timed it just right and got to see the changing of the guard which was very entertaining. Got to see a bit more than the British one as there weren't so many people around. The guards had a funny run they kept doing which kept making me crack up. The guns were pretty cool too, with huge bayonets on the end.

We had lunch at a little cafe overlooking a square where a classical band were playing, a lovely way to spend some time, and then we headed to a department store so Tim could get some lego for his son. There was an awesome R2D2 made out of lego there, geeky yes I know but it was cool.

It was a nice way to end off my trip to Sweden and I really hope to have a chance to go back again, Stockholm was such a beautiful city.
