Scandinavia Trip (In Pictures)



Richard and I just got back from a great trip to Europe! We spent 4 days in Stockholm, 2 days in southern Sweden, and a few days in Copenhagen. I just downloaded 300 photos, but here are the best ones that best describe our trip:



One of the first things we saw were these buses full of students who just graduated. They rode around in trucks with branches and music blasting. It was very interesting!



Me and my mom at the royal palace for the (small) changing of the guard.






Buying dinner from Mom's friend, Esau!



Family Home Evening at the Institute building.



Me and Dad overlooking Sweden at dusk (which is at like 11 pm).




On the metro!






On our Stockholm Archipelago boat tour


I love this picture - it makes me think of a desktop background photo! Maybe I should sell it to Microsoft.



At the Stockholm Temple



The top of City Hall



Mailing a postcard back to the States!



We went to a really cool concert in Stockholm! They played only music from video games (like Super Mario Brothers and Zelda). We had pretty cool seats - right above the orchestra.



The only squirrel in Sweden...



All of the kids were wearing these jackets - it made them look like mini-construction workers!




At the Hard Rock Cafe - they had ABBA stuff!






The ORIGINAL IKEA in Almhult, Sweden.



At the Copenhagen Temple



At the Puckelball Pitch in Malmo (more information here).



We played a lot of Hand and Foot!!




Riding bikes around the University of Lund in southern Sweden.



At the Round Tower in Copenhagen.


EVERYONE bikes at Copenhagen. Check out the "bike rack" at Central Station.



At The Little Mermaid statue.


We went to the Christus Church - it was beautiful!



We rented bikes for a day to fit in. Here's Richard at an awesome cemetery right outside of Copenhagen.

Okay, that's all folks! It was a great trip!
