Day 24 - 10/02/07 Stockholm sightseeing

Steven @ Thu, 2007-06-14 20:46

With my impromptu trip back to Finland fast approaching I decided to get out and see a little bit more of Stockholm. I headed back to Gamla Stan to check out some more of the beautiful churches on show, along with hiting up the Nobel Museum. The churches were beautiful and worth the vigorous walks, but I was a tad disappointed by the museum. It was certainly interesting to see all the Laureates, but the remainder just wasn't overly engaging. A few weeks from now I visited the Nobel peace prize museum in Oslo, and felt it to be more interesting. At that particular time the museum was housing a special exhibition of Winston Churchill's paintings. Photos of the museum's interior were prohibited.
