SWEDEN

We arrived in Sweden after a 1 hour plane ride and we had about 2 seconds to buy bus tickets and find the bus!!! It was a 1 hour bus ride to Stockholm! =) I think one of my favorite parts of the trip was the bus ride because we passed so many beautiful bridges and mountains!! It was beautiful! It’s like driving up to Show Low, Arizona but 10 times better!!! It was so green with the white snow everywhere!!!

After the bus ride we went to a church and sat through about 15 minutes of mass at the Church of Sweden! My head teacher Sam read scriptures for everyone!! It was so funny!!! After that we walked to the hostel. On our way we stopped at the bridge and took picture of the sunset!!! It was beautiful!!! We finally found are hostel. There were 8 of us and 12 beds. So we had roommates!! Let me tell you 2 were nice and the other 2 didn’t come in till about 1 in the morning! I wake up and turn over to see a fat naked man with locks of hair on his head AND back. If you were to combine both you could make at least 10 sweaters. It was a very big surprise to see that when I woke up. For those of you who are worrying about me, it turned out he was not all naked, he had his finest "tighty-whities" on!!!

I left the room very fast when we woke up!! After the morning fun we walked around and did a free tour that was very fun in its own way. DID you know the queen of Sweden married her gym trainer!! Scandalous!  You learn something new every day!!! After learning that valuable information we went to see the changing of the guards!! It looked funny but kind of lame too. We thought there was going to be this big thing but nope, not so much!!!

By then me and Reagan needed a bag of candy so we stopped and got a big bag of the stuff!! And guess what, it was gone within a day!  After that we needed a little exercise so we took jumping pictures by the water and watched the sunset! The clouds ruined our sunset plans because they were covering it all up, so we just headed to MacDonald’s!! (Cheapest thing to eat in Sweden) We ate there twice in one day and once each day after that!

The next day we walked around and bought more gifts and trinkets. I got an "I heart Swedish Boys" t-shirt and a key chain!! You can’t have enough key chains!!! I have a key chain from everywhere I went! So then we headed to the airport and flew from Sweden back to Estonia where we caught a bus (after a 20 min walk) that we rode back into Russia!!! I loved my vacation!!!

Sorry... no pictures of the Hairy Man in the Tighty-Whities. =)
