Like many ports, I jumped ship with Neil and Theresa, wandering
around the city.
What we found was that Stockholm seemed to be hostile towards
tourists. Almost every place we went, it wasn't open, or we got
wrong directions, or they went from closed to completely full, etc.
And given that we've frequently done this sort of a port stop, for us
to notice this is definitely significant.
Everything was also very expensive, like US $7 for a simple beer.
This definitely comes off my list of interesting places. Except
for the Swedish Babes (which were plentiful), this place had nothing to offer.
Well, some old architecture, but I'd seen a lot of that the previous four days already.

A mime is a terrible thing to waste. This guy had a cool gimmick though: he had a secret hand control to trigger robot sounds as he moved. |
