This is it: My FINAL Post!!! "The Mixed Bag"
So, I am sitting in my room packing up my stuff right now and have decided to take a break from racing through memories in my mind. I thought I may as well throw a final post on here since Cass and I are leaving Stockholm for good this weekend for Amsterdam. There really isnt any theme to this post other than some very cool pics from Stockholm and my favourite building: Stockholms Stadshuset (City Hall). Excuse me if some of these pics are already on my blog, but hey I really didnt want to go through them all to check. So just sit back, relax and enjoy my pics as I walk down memory lane in my last week here in Stockholm.

This is the Viking style roof in the parliament room in City Hall.....

A cool painting in City Hall.......the following are just some more cool pics from Stadshuset....

The Gold Room......

A beautiful day in downtown Stockholm just outside of the subway station Ostermalmstorg.....

This is my Swedish friends bed and breakfast. It was built in 1776 and Cecilia has turned it into a beautiful place to eat, sleep and even have beautiful weddings during the summer months. Thanks so much for all of your help and hospitality Cecilia!!!

Inside Central Station.....

View from Slussen........

The "Royal Dramatic Theatre" (translated of course).......

Lambo.......

The smallest island in Stockholm

The pole that centers downtown Stockholm. As you can see it lights up a cool blueish colour at night....

OK readers, I guess that it is it for now. Thanks so much for all of the comments and to all of my European friends/readers; I could never thank you enough for all of the memories. You guys have been amazing and have made this trip truly the single greatest thing that I have ever done in my life. Hopefully this blog has managed to capture half of the memories that we have shared over the past half a year.

Thanks again guys......I will see the rest of you in the mother land.

Hej då och tack så mycket!!!! Ha en trevlig resa!!!!!!!!!

HOPPAS VI SES IGEN!!!!!!!!!!!

Valborg
So, spring has arrived here in Stockholm!!! When it does, the Swedes celebrate every year at a festival they call Valborg. At this festival they sing songs, dance, have some good 'ol fashioned family fun around a fire. Nej, a HUGE bloody fire! Veit and I checked out the festivities held at an outdoor museum call Skansen in downtown Stockholm. Here was our view from the top of Skansen:

Some pics of the rather large fire that was lit by the Stockholm fire department. Remember kids, safety is no accident.....

I decided to dance and join the festivities!!

Some more views from Skansen......
