Sunny outdoor day

Today we had great weather, sunny, the snow was (almost) gone and it was less windy then before. We started the day with a search for the right bus to Djurgarden, which appeared to be 5 meters from our hotel (which we of course found out after running around for 20 minutes). We were very much impressed by the Vasa Musuem (see photo above), which displays a war ship that sank almost 400 years ago. In the 1960's it was lifted out of the water and completely restored. The ship was in a brilliant condition and the museum was great! The ship was obviously the centre of attention, but the building was beautifull and the information in the museum very good (interesting, not too much). After seeing the Vasa ship we walked to Skansen, the world's oldest open air museum. Very quiet and very nicely located on a hill with great views over the city. This was also a very entertaining museum housing a Snicker factory (which turned out to be a furniture workplace), lots of very old buildings, huge Dala horses ;-) and typical Swedish animals (reindeers, owls, seals, wolves, etc.). Whoever can tell us the difference between an elk and a moose, please do so!
