Stockholm

We came back on the St Peter princess Maria ferry/cruise to Helsinki to a rainy cold morning.  I don't know what the difference between a cruise and a ferry is.  Perhaps it's that on a ferry everything is a la carte.  We enjoyed the cruise.  When we got to Helsinki we stashed one of our packs at the Klaus K hotel where we were going to end up and then walked around the city.  We went to Stockman's and had lunch on the top floor then to a cathedral and then to the Ferris wheel and ended up at the Grand hotel where we had some lunch prior to boarding our next cruise /ferry to Stockholm.  
Stockman's 


Mikael Bjorklund menu starter from island of Aland.

Vasa museum. Preserved ship from 1628. Salvaged in 1961 and because the waters were brackish the ship was intact.  It sank immediately after its maiden voyage- poor design.  




We enjoyed this duo.
