Tom tits

Our Stockholm card was a 72 hour pass. So when we noticed we had 30 minutes on the card while passing through Södertälje we zoomed in to Tom Tits experiment and had 2 hours of fun before heading back to Hörby.

Rökstenan

A rock! The largest runic stone in Sweden. Definitely worth the drive.

Vårdcentral

What a way to end the vacation. Rita got a high fever during the night. The local tourist office was on the phone for more than an hour in to got us a doctors appointment. Excellent service.

The Mattis forest

Rita slightly under the weather but a crime rider nonetheless. A visit to Hagaparken brought us to the ruins of the palace that never was build since Gustav III was assasinated in a theater. The ruin was in a small forrest and before anyone had said jack rabbit Rita had climped the walls. Needless to say we saw the signs afterwards. I wonder what's to become of the photographer.

Left hand side

Axel's got sick - hopefully just a summer cold. We broke up in teams. In the morning Rita, Erik and I went to the 155 m tall Kaknäs tower and got a spectacular view of Stockholm. Afternoon and evening Ellen spent with the two on Junibakken and Skansen. And pour Axel was brought to the city in hopes he had energy for more. It ended as a turn around. But we found out that the trains in Stockholm did not convert in 1967 and drive on the left hand side.
