Hello and welcome back..
To our blog about Stockholm.
After such an amazing day (and night) I thought it an absolute must to
post separately about hanging out with our friends: Flgyt Chick, Mr Burgundy & Whiskey-man - names changed
to protect the innocent!
So, where to begin? Winnie and I were given strict instructions
to “Meet at 11 at Central Station, next the big hole in the floor”. Now, this could be taken any number of ways;
what was Flygt Chick and Mr Burgundy
planning to do with us? Having worked
with Flygt Chick, Winnie and I were expecting a fun day, and were not
disappointed at all. Thank you Flygt
Chick!

Walking down the Old Town streets |
All was revealed, when we
saw them both wrapped up in HUGE puffer jackets (Flygt Chick was wearing a
brilliantly bright red one, whilst Mr Burgundy
was in a bright blue jacket). So we were
gonna be outdoors! We infact were in
store for a lovely walking tour of all of the major sights in Stockholm.
We started by heading away from central station to the Town Hall, dubbed
the golden hall owing to the numerous golden pipes that it has, and is also the
sought after location for the annual Nobel Prize Winners’ Celebration and
dinner. The chefs at the event put
together a special menu that is unique to each celebration. There is a restaurant next to the hall that
recreates the menu for 364 days after the Nobel Prize official dinner. After this we headed over to the Royal Palace,
where we were taking photos of the guards on duty. Next Mr Burgundy suggested that see the changing of
the guards ceremony at the royal palace.
We went and it was no surprise to any of that it was a fairly dull
event, but we stayed and watched it anyways.
