Dec, 6 2012 Its the end of my first day in Sweden( wich took forver to get here). Im staying at the Ice Hotel, wich is a hotel made completely of ice and snow. The hotel as a lot of cool things to do, like today I went snowmibiling in the arctic taiga forest and saw a moose, but I had to wkae up very early becuase in the winter it gets dark early. The tempature was 40 degrees fahrenhiet. Then at night 5 degrees fahrenhiet.
More about the Ice Hotel........ The beds are made of ice but have a heavy wool blanket insulating it, then you get a sleepingbag from the warm room. The warm room is a separte room in the Ice Hotel, not made of ice, that has the kitchen, bathroom and front desk. In the morning I get served lingonberry juice my my bed before the day. The Hotel also has a show about, the making and melting of the hotel.

Its my first day in Stockholm, Sweden. My hotel the Rica is really cool, and pretty. It is also 1 block from the metro station, and the Drottninggatan shopping mall. Today I went to the Vasa museum, they had a really cool old ship, that sunk in 1628, it took almost 2 years for it to be built. The man behind the building of the ship was Henrik Hybertsson, who died in 1627.

Its my last actullal day in Sweden, at the moment Im in Stockholm, and today I was just a tourist. I simple walked around and shoped and had the best bread at Riddarbageriet Bakery, I seriously wish I could I could bring the bread with me. I shopped at the Drottninggatan outdoor market, and got a delisus cup of Swedish hot chocolate. Today i aslo had time to tour Drottningholm Palce, where the royal family of Sweden lives, built in the late 16th century, on a island called Lovon. I wish I wish I could have toured more of the palace, but I have to be well rested for my flight tommarow becuase I leave for the Czech Rebublic Tommarow
