We have changed our unit of distance; kilometres have been replaced by ABBA songs or in the case of longer distances whole ABBA cd's. For Tony and Johan it was a long way across Sweden - 14 albums and 6 songs to be precise
For us the Swedish countryside showed little variation - gently rolling land and extensive forests, Stockholm however, was a revelation. The old section had a labyrinth of inviting lanes while a range of interesting attractions were situated on small islands overlooking the mainland. One of these islands contained Stockhlolm's most famous attraction - the ABBA museum. For ABBA fans, this museum warrants inclusion on your 'bucket list'. It contained a large range of ABBA memorabilia, even Benny's car! A huge collection of stage clothing was on display, as were Eurovision entries from Sweden over the decades and their performances. To cap it all off, the sun shone for nearly a whole day, the first time this has happened since Denmark.
Unfortunately we erred again by allowing insufficient time to see the city in as much detail as we would have liked,
