Hey, Hey. Hello in Swedish

We arrived in Sweden at 7:00 AM Sunday morning and hit the streets in Stockholm. This is one of the Royal guards. We did not have much information about the Royal Palace, but from what we could tell, this is mostly a ceremonial / tourist site. I am hoping tomorrow will include more detail about the areas we visit. It doesn't seem as if tourism is high on the Swedish list of priorities. Or, maybe it's the fact that Mike and I have not slept for 48 hours.
The Nobel Prize building
Historic District in Stockholm
We took a ferry and this was one of the many small islands we passed that happened to be inhabited. A very interesting contemporary structure was  built on one side that may have been an outdoor sitting area. 
That's it for today. 
We are staying in the town of Eskilstuna, west of Stockholm. The Volvo facility is located in this town. My companion named Love and I will be doing exploring and visiting museums tomorrow.
Skol!
