Living in London

Today we segway'd, taxi'd, and cruise'd. We started the day with a Segway tour of Djurgarden, a beautiful garden island that is part of Stockholm. We rode past all kinds of beautiful flowers and vegetable gardens, all set in a gorgeous park. As I would have predicted, Heather is trying to figure out where we should live in order to justify owning one.

Then we set off to the National Museum, which turned out to be fantastic ... They had a very good design exhibition, and some genius curator has finally put 18th century paintings with modern in the same gallery. Heather was reminded of the etiquette of museums.

Then we did some fun people-watching as the city readied itself for it's Gay Pride parade. We longed to stick around to see the parade, but hey, we had a ship to catch. We wound all around the parade route in a taxi en route to the piers to begin our cruise. 

We loved Stockholm and hope we can return to this lovely little city soon. However, now that the day is here, we are both amazed at how excited we are to board this very impressive ship.
