2nd day in Stockholm, rain, cold and the Vasa Museum

Shocker...rainy and chilly. Marisa and I are convinced that Stockholm doesn't have a summer season. BRRR! I actually had to buy warm socks. Today, we did a bus tour and learned more about Stockholm. We also went to the Vasa Museum.

The VASA was the ship that set sail in Stockholm and then sank 10 minutes after it started it's journey. They recovered the boat and now it's in a museum. Very interesting, yet very disturbing.

Marisa and I ate a typical Swedish lunch, pickled herrings and something else (no clue what it was) at the oldest restaurant in Stockholm. We felt like locals...for the hour we were there.
