​ We walked to the coffee shop and ordered some delicious breakfast. I got fancy and got a cappuccino. I was not upset with my choice. We had about an hour after we got back from breakfast before getting to the airport. We sat in the lounge area which was great. It had fancy couches and fancy lights. It was relaxing. We then had the front desk call a cab. We did this so that we didn’t get ripped off. Thankfully the cab took us door to door because it was pouring. Copenhagen was crying on us because we were leaving. It was probably tears of joy….but we won’t talk about that. We got to the airport and shuffled along through security at a snails pace. People were being annoying and not paying attention. I thought there should be a bouncer so that they could bounce the people that stood in line for an hour to the back of the line for not paying attention. You put your things in the tray and walk through the machine. Why is this so difficult. The lady next to me was flipping out because my ...

​ We met for breakfast. The Queen’s Hotel puts on a nice spread of freshly baked bread, home maid cinnamon buns, fresh fruit, eggs, bacon, sausage, sandwich meats and cheese. Yum!  We sat down in the dining room. One other couple was in the dining room with us and chose the table RIGHT next to us. Why? 37 other wide open tables and they choose the one right on top of us. My assessment of Stockholm is that it felt safe. It was very clean. People were friendly and welcoming. We spoke to a guy yesterday that was from Astoria and he was so grateful to America for helping his country. He was almost in tears.

It was quiet, it was clean, people take turns getting on and off. People seem polite. I can’t even imagine what these people would think of an American train station. At the airport we found a lounging area near our gate. We had a ...

 Melissa, David and I came up with a traveling back story. We are in a committed Thruple-ship! We think this is hysterical as an older lady called David my husband. I loved it! Today we got in our last sights and sounds of Stockholm. 1st stop, ABBA museum! How fun!  Music was pumping. We saw old outfits and clips from them in the 80’s. One lady did karaoke on stage! She was great! We tried on their outfits and it was a light hearted museum. We traveled there by boat! Our friend Aeneas (of course I pronounced it Anus….which wasn’t too far from the actual pronunciation) was on the boat. He was on our boat yesterday too! He was our tour guide. We saw some good sights, great architecture and the weather was much better today! We headed near Gamla Stan again. We jumped off the boat and went to see the ABBA museum! When we were done with the museum, we all got a bottle of water. We sat in the cafe area which was super cute! Winning! We took a boat to Gamla Stan again. Such a cute li...
