A Snowy Weekend in Stockholm - Abbey Rozanski

Although this post doesn't involve anything related to Harry Potter or me crying, I hope it'll still be a good one.  Last Monday, Maggie, Troy and I decided that we wanted to go somewhere for our last three-day weekend.  To be honest, we had no idea where to go and ended up picking Stockholm because Maggie found cool pictures of it on Pinterest.  I am forever indebted to Pinterest (and Maggie) for making us want to go to Sweden.

We arrived Friday around 4 and spent the afternoon wandering around the city.  That night we went to a Swedish pub and thought the man sitting at the table next to us was Chris Martin (the lead singer of Coldplay) and I may or may not have almost freaked out.  It's fine. 

Apart from our almost Chris Martin sighting, some other highlights from this weekend were walking to an island full of museums, getting bitten by an otter, eating really good Chinese food, meeting a Spanish man who went to school in London but is working at an Irish pub in Sweden, and seeing all of Stockholm from the top of the world's largest spherical building. 

Overall, it was an incredible adventure, and I would love nothing more than to go back.
