Sweding (Tuesday)
Aug. 20th, 2018 09:24 pmThe next day started with, of course, breakfast. Breakfast was accompanied by some night birds.

I've decided to visit Drottningholm (yes, I looked up the correct spelling). There is a boat going back and forth; two boats, to be correct. So, I went to board the first one. On the way I've noticed a burglar running.

I think somebody was a bit annoyed our boat was moving past.

We've met the second boat, which was going back. I would later board it as well to return to Stockholm.

This is the Drottningholm palace.

The weather wasn't quite good, but I still went to the park first, saving the palace for later.

I was right. The park proved to be charming.

There is a so-called "Chinese pavillion" in the park.

It's not very exciting on the inside. Well, neither is it on the outside.

Although one particularly dark corner of it is somewhat amusing.

Strangely, the park was almost completely empty.

I'm sure that if I lived nearby, I would be visiting every day.

Probably won't make selfies every day though.

Then I went to the palace.

It was also guarded by some kittens.

The palace was the opposite to the park — crowded, but boring.

Well, there were some kittens inside too.

I've decided to visit the theater near the palace last. As I had some time, I walked a bit more around the buildings.

And found some more wildlife, that seems to think it's their home. They are probably correct.

The scenery is just gorgeous.

I don't think it can every stop being new and exciting.

Despite being close to civilized areas.

The theater is also guarded by kittens.

People are only allowed inside the theater in groups, following a guide.

Inside the theater there is a lot of painted wood. According to the guide, the royal family didn't have enough money to buy some real marble.

And after the theater I went back to Stockholm. On the way we, of course, met the first boat, making another trip to Drottningholm.

I didn't notice it at first, but there is some weird thing under the bridge here. It's not connected to the shore.

Almost back.

I didn't go to the hotel immediately, but walked around a little more. Yes, there is an owl.

Another body of water. They are really everywhere in Stockholm.

Just an interesting entrance.

Children's playground.

Another part of the playground; instead of pushing the ground, the kids can pretend they are riding a bicycle.

No idea what's that supposed to be.

Just to give some idea about how non-flat is the city.
