Photo Diary: Day In Stockholm

Hello there and welcome to my blog! Like some of you may know I went to Sweden at the beginning of this week. I am going to publish travel diary about my trip but because I just happen to be lazy enjoy first these photos I took. (The real travel diary should be out some day next week. Sorry…)

So just to tell you more information before we start I went to day in Stockholm cruise with my family. Taking this cruise is quite normal in Finland and I have done it several times but every time it is as fun.

The cruise is three days long. First you spend evening and night in sea. The second day is spend in Stockholm and after that you return to the ship and spend another night there. I hope you enjoy the photos I took.

 

 

I have been on this same Silja Line ship so many times there isn’t a much to explore. However the scenery never disappoints.

 

Ship is ready. Welcome aboard!

 

I’m totally in love with the Silja Line ships’ promenade street. Say whatever you want about our ship being small but I feel like in home here.

 

Listening band is always fun experience! Specially when some drunk Finns are dancing in front of you. The Asian guys next to us had fun time laughing to our fellow Finns.

 

No complaining in our breakfast scenery. I would spend every morning like this.

 

Finally in Sweden! It is so close to my home country but still so different. The building right is the Royal Palace. (Fun fact in Sweden it is called castle not palace even if there is nothing castle like in it.)

 

Our main attraction in this trip was Moderna Museet and Yayoi Kusama exhibition. Here you see the self portrait of the artist.

 

Anyone else loving infinity rooms? Yayoi Kusama’s exhibition had several of them. I am in love.

 

Even my brother kind of liked it and stated that Sweden has better museums than Finland.

 

Another infinity room. This time with water and color changing balloons. This museum is definitely made for taking selfies.

 

I’m not fashionista so for me find something from this girly shop was miracle. I am happy new owner of flowery toiletry bag.

 

Walking around all the alleys is something I want to do one day. Now it wasn’t possible because I was with my family. No getting lost with them…

 

There’s our ship and Silja Line logo. Time to return home.

 

Our last goodbyes to Sweden. I hope I will return soon. (PS. why areΒ the islands here so idyllic and beautiful?)

 

If I would make one wish, it would be to see the sunset every day in new place…

 

 

Happy travels for everyone!

  1. Yes, I love Sweden as well! A year ago in the spring I visited Stockholm with my sister. We decided to fly and used Airbnb to find the cutest room to stay in. It was the most perfect 4 day vacation. And I could go still again…maybe with my girls? 😊

    1. Unfortunately the museum wasn’t on the ship but the on Stockholm where we stopped 😦 But I agree with you there should be museums on every cruise!

  2. Must have a wonderful trip. I have never traveled by sea but i sure hope to do so one day, soon πŸ˜€
    Oh and one of the pictures of that museum made to take selfies, the picture was amazing but it actually lacked a selfie (if you know what i mean πŸ˜› )
    Anyway, looking forward to read the travel diary next week πŸ™‚

    1. You should travel by sea it is wonderful experience. I’m sorry about the lack of selfie in that photo but I have decided to not share my face in this blog (at least for now). Let’s say that hypothetically the room was perfect for selfies πŸ˜€ Thank you for commenting πŸ™‚

  3. What a great trip you had! And goodies from VC too πŸ˜€ That exhibition looks like something I’d enjoy. It’s been ages since I’be been on a Stockholm cruise, I always opt for Tallinn. Maybe I should look into going in the Fall..

    1. Thank you for commenting! I have never been to Tallinn cruise but will go later this year so I really can’t compare those two. But I think you should definitely go to Stockholm if you haven’t been for a while πŸ™‚
