11th of August 2026 - Arrival in Stockholm

Today we left our ship and transferred to an hotel in Stockholm.  We walked from the hotel to Gamla Stan, Stockholm’s medieval Old Town.  Gamla Stan is an island district of cobbled lanes and 13th century narrow alleyways forming the historic heart of Sweden’s capital.

 

We found a delightful restaurant in Gamla Stan to have a delicious Swedish version of duck confit.  The cocktails, a Stockholm version of a Moscow Mule, were good too.

 

After our meal we walked back to our hotel past the Royal Palace (Kungliga slottet), Sweden’s official royal residence and one of Europe’s largest functioning palaces and along the waterfront.
