Today, Thursday, we continued our time in Stockholm and environs. I
didn't get a good photo on my iPhone today (I take most of them with
our camera), so I'll send one of the hotel dining room that I took
yesterday.

We went first to the Carl Milles Museum, his estate on the Stockholm
island of Lidingö. Most of it is outside, and the sculptures are
wonderful. Even though it was a gray day, I thoroughly enjoyed our
time there.

After that, we took a train to the town of Uppsala, 40 minutes north
of Stockholm, to see the cathedral and university. The cathedral is
the largest church in Scandinavia. Before we left Uppsala, I stopped
in a bookstore to buy a Swedish book of worship.

Other highlights of the day were having a lingonberry coke--highly
recommended!--and getting more familiar with the Stockholm subway
system. Today's trivia: the Swedish flag is the second-oldest national
flag in the world, after Denmark.

Tomorrow looks to bring rain, a more relaxed day in Stockholm, and
then a night train to Oslo, the capital of some other Nordic country.
