Kinda funny that yet another European city is called the "Venice of the North."
Our next stop, Stockholm, allowed us to tour a rescued sunken ship that was built top-heavy with war ammunition. During it's unveiling, it sailed less than a nautical mile in 1628. It was left at the bottom of the ocean when rediscovered in the 1950s while a hull was sticking out of the water. The Swedes pretty much built this museum (above) around the ship (below) after recovering it from the water. The kids saw skeletons found in the ship, but we decided those pictures might be a little morbid.
We are leaving Sweden behind, glancing for some nice summer homes in the area.
This house was secluded on it's own island.
This was our favorite to dream about owning.
