Since I have 72-hr unlimited access to ferries, I planned today around ferry rides. I took 1-hr Ferry 89 west to Tappström, then a 20-min bus to Drottningholms Palace to check out its free garden. Drottningholms Palace is on UNESCO's World Heritage list. It is the most well-preserved royal castle built in the 1600s in Sweden and is representative of all European architecture for the period.
After that, it started raining and I took 45 min Bus and train to Kajsas Fisk to taste the famous fish soup ($13 unlimited soup refills, salad and bread).
I walked by the Parliament Building and bumped into a free English tour (so to escape the heavy rain). Then the sky turned sunny, so I continued the 2nd ferry as planned, Ferry 83 from slussen to Vaxholm 4 pm arrive 5 pm return bus 6:30 pm back to hostel 7:30 pm. A long and full day before flying to Tallinn, Estonia tomorrow.
“Vaxholm is a municipality spanning several islands in Sweden’s Stockholm archipelago. The 16th-century Vaxholm Fortress, built on an islet to defend Stockholm, now houses a museum chronicling the building's history. Pastel-colored wooden houses dot Vaxholm's town center. “
What a surprise to see 4-pairs Ukrainian mother-kids in my hostel room who were taken in for humanity reasons.
