Stockholm, page 1 of 6


Stockholm is the capital of Sweden and with over 2 million people in the metropolitan area is the largest city in Scandinavia.  It is reported to have had people living there a rather long time ago – perhaps the 6th millennium BC but was founded as a city quite recently – well in the year 1252.  Our cruise ship took some time to cruise past many islands through narrow shipping channels.




So, here we are anchored very close to town with a short journey in the tender to the wharf pretty much in the centre of town.  What do we do after travelling for a long time on a ship – well, we get on a ferry that will take us over to see another ship named the Vasa that is on display in a museum.
