Gamla Stan (Old Town)
The weather: 0 degree to 1 degree...
...heard that it's snowing over at Norway..
It has not been snowing in Stockholm.. even the local ppl find it weird... they said this is the warmest winter they have ever experience....
BUT I FIND IT SO COLD!!!!
My breakfast
Hot dog again and milk
On our way to Royal Palace
nice Flower
we came across this church, decided to go in, but the book that i carried( u should be able to see that i am carrying the book in some photos) said it need entry fee...
we walk around the church..and i saw a door...wanna try my luck to see if i can go in free...
yeah!!! i went in and saw a lot of pairs of eyes looking at me... i looked up the sign and saw that the door was labeled "EXIT"
so paisay.. think we made a loud entry cos i pulled the door rather hard .... kekekeke
Next we went to the Nobel Museum...
again it need money... so we only too the photos from outside...
We also went to visit the Royal Palace..Outside not inside... we should be going into the Palace tomorrow... the opening hour is so short... 12pm to 3pm...
see their red face...
so poor thing, cant even show expresson..
their actions and movements are so robotic...
the guard changing event occurs daily at 12pm..
we tot it would be very grand and long..but then it lasted so short..Alamak man..like 10sec for each guard changing their shift..
we waited and waited as the crowd get thicker.. cold air blew on our face..like needle piercing thru the skin.. i cant even feel that my mucus is flowing out of my nose.. have to constantly asked Mindy if my nose is watery..hehehehe...disgusting i know...
there were so many ppl so i suggested u go back late to queue for the ticket...
by the time we returned, it was already 2.30pm. so we will go another day...
entry fee: 65kr for 30 days..
i wonder how big the Palace would be...
would it be so big that we would take 1 month to have the complete views???
We shall see....

Along Slottsbacken
KING GUSTAV III
We went shopping around the Old Town...
i couldnt resist the CHOCOLATE...
Usually i dun have craving for chocolate..BUT THEN... the chocolate is so tempting!!!
DROOLING
see this soccer-chocolate-ball
after eating sure got one thick meat growing out from u....
I saw so many dogs around in Stockholm
the dogs here are so obedient and loyal...
they can be brought into the train..
On my first day, i saw a clever dog, siting outside a store, looking at his owner who is buying his stuff inside the store.. it never move a step...
i wonder if BUDDY can sit that long...kekeke...*dreaming*
WHO SAID PIGS ARE UGLY???
they have pig parade!!! Never heard of this before leh... got so many pretty pigs
saw some cute stuff...

among the cute stuff, there are also :
Hmmm...
they have comic shop too
this shop sells novel too... think they wouldnt be able to survive if they sell solely comic...
like mindy said, the ratio (ang mo : asian) here are like 100:1 ..
One of the shop has this bowl of sweet at the cashier counter...
i tried and it turned me off...tasted so weird..
felt like puking after eating it... REGRET!!!
the following is a street called Marten Trotzigs Grand
It is the narrowest street in the city...
only 90cm wide..
wanna know how it got it's name????
it was from a german who bought 2 houses there...
if i have 3 houses there, the street probably changed to POH QIU YUN....
The toilet cost 5kr= SGD$1
It's crazy!! But as long as u hold the door when the person came out and before the door closed, u can save 5 kr...
Meaning that the door can only be open from inside not outside.. to open from outside, u have to put in 5 kr...
BUT hor, wat is a person is baking cake and then another person B , not knowing that there is a person A inside, and the Person B put in 5 kr???KEKEKEKE
then u can watch FREE SHOW with 5 kr!!!!
On our way back to the Gamla Stan train station
end of another day...
