Up and off to the Castle

It takes a bit more effort getting 6 people ready then it does get into people ready. Once we were out the door at the whole everything went smooth. We went to the second place to pick up our Stockholm card and were denied again. I even took the brochure of the wall to show the lady that this is where I could pick up the card and she says well not anymore. So Leslie and I just bought another Stockholm card for today. We will have to pick up the other ones later tomorrow. Besides that everything was smooth at the castle. We got into all the different museums using our card and it was just seamless.

Kingly Bling

We saw this color scheme alot

They had big medals made in the little medals made so they can wear the little ones the dinner and the big ones for ceremonial functions

I like this one for me!

Highlights from a carved wooden chest

Does a wooden snail leave a wooden slime Trail

So many chandeliers

I estimate that we saw 127 clocks.  It must require a full time employee to keep all the clocks wound and in correct time.
