Ursula and I had a great time in Stockholm! It really is a magical place with all the islands, water, and bridges. Sunday We went out to the residence of the Royal family. The theater on the property is really renown, and Ursula is an actress so we we wanted to check it out, but unfortunately the theater was closed. We still had a good time though. Ursula stood on a frozen lake for the first time, and the palace was nice. We both loved taking the public transportation out to the palace. The palace is about 40 minutes outside of the main islands of Stockholm. After the palace we rode public transportation to other parts of Stockholm. It is such a treat to just ride around or walk around with water views and bridges everywhere.
Our hostel experience in Stockholm was really cool! We met a some awesome people and had great conversations. We walked around for two hours Saturday night trying to find a place to dance, but we were a group of 4 girls and 11 guys so no club would let us in.
Sunday night we hung out in the hostel and chatted. We played cards with a group of Francophone Swiss. They told us that the Swiss bisous three times starting from the left. In France we start from the right and bisous two times. I spent a long time talking to a Christian guy from Jordan who lives in the hostel full time. Their was also a really neat group of three roommates who study in Poland. One roommate was French, another Italian, and the other Turkish. I´m actually hoping to go visit them. We´ll see.....:):):)
Ursula and I got in to Frankfurt unexpectedly late, but our couchsurfing host was so gracious! We chatted a little bit last night, but he had work today so we´ll hang out some more tonight. Today Ursula and I are going to hang out in Frankfurt. We don´t have any particular plan at the moment. We´ll catch a bus back to the airport at 11am tomorrow. At the airport we are going to part ways. I´ll be couchsurfing in Oslo, but their was an unexpected change to Ursula´s plans so she´ll be heading back to Metz. I´ll be back in Metz on the 21st.
