Sweden

The ship Vasa sank on it's maiden voyage, in the 

harbor, and

was raised 300 years later, intact. Of course it

had to be restored....but very impressive .

 

Going to Sweden was a great idea for a 3 day weekend.  Beautiful flowers, the Baltic, temple, cobblestone, hop on hop off, the royal palace, changing of the guard, marching band, walking, walking, Old Town, Gamla stan, (we could picture my Grandfather Johnson preaching there in 1910-1913),  narrow streets, the ship Vasa, seeing from the air the Finnish and Swedish archipelago, navigating the metro system--under and above ground, 7-11, Hard Rock, TGI Fridays, Burger King!

The Stockholm Temple 

flowers on the grounds.

Below was one of several fountains in several town

squares....can't you see early missionaries standing

there??

One of many quaint narrow streets in the Old Town.
