Stockholm -- Simple and Nice

Another round of travelling :). This time was by Rynair. To a breathtaking place --Stockholm, Sweden which is formed by 12 islands.

Day 1
Since is a budget traveling, budget airtickets, airport is far away from home and public transports are limited. So, time spent and wasted were more for waiting... Imagine our flight was 9pm and i needed to depart from home at 2pm. Took train to Ludwigshafen Hbf's bus stop. Meeting up with buddy there. He rushed on time. Bus came and depart to Frankfurt Hahn Aiport. Took about one an half hour to reach there. A typical AirAsia airport. Slightly bigger and more organize :). But the "kquan" is same la. Spent the whole evening waiting and waiting for check in. Oh ya..we got VIP boarding pass. Dunno why. Lantak, as long as no need to queue that long :P. People were kiasu, beratur before even the counter open. Crazy. We wouldn't care more, check in last, but board the earliest. Haha.... VIP ma. Oh ya, nearly forgot about the stupid liquid kind of stuffs, security check. Need to buy a transparent plastic for all my facial sets. Beh tahan...

Reached Stockholm Skavasta airport two hours later. Bought tickets for airport coaches to town centre. We expected to reach late but not till very late. Time dragged by the "turtle" bus driver. Reached very late. Got into a taxi as no tram services available. Kena "potong" for only 5 mins ride. Searched for address and luckily the "hotel guy" was there waiting for us till 3am! Nice guy. Can't wait, jumped to the bed and zzzzzzzz.

Day 2
Next day woke up around 11am. Buddy already bought me breakfast (RM40 roasted chicken and baggett RM5) and lots of Swedish specialties --Delicato ball, cinnamon bread, white choc stick and da green stuff (almond taste). Hehe...lovely! After makan-makan, prepared ourselves to go kai kai lor. But.... 2 biji ni... playing "photography session" till 2pm! Blek... :P .. No worries..the day is quite long now, even at 3am, sky still not very dark yet.

While walking all the way to Old Town for sightseeing and Vasamuseum, we passed by city centre, City Hall--saw wedding couple...pencil like monument, old churhes...The Royal Palace, Nobel Museum. Stopped for coffee session... window shopping... Keep going then. passed by Gallerian and lots of nice scenes in town. Buddy is liked a experienced tour guide...telling...hmm "Swedish people like to listen to ABBA; Stockholm is a birthplace for...(i forgot,entah bmw ke volvo), bla...." :P

We reached Old Town really late. About 8pm. Still sunny. The water is blue and calm. Lot's of cruises there. Actually planned to have a ride, but hmm.... mahal giler. Is good enough to be here. I enjoyed lots. We sat on the benches near the sea, enjoying the beautiful, windy scene. Can see the Vasamusuem from here. Hmm.. not really wanna go for that. Just took some pics from here is ok for me. Good chat, good laugh, photography session again! Haha... buddy in the mood of that. After photography session, walked along the bridge, i was really kaki patah dy, holding him to walked back home. I said "How I wish my beloved is here also to be with us,hor?". "Then, I will broke lagi teruk lor!" "We different taste, nanti I will dump you here lor" Haha....

Have a piece of cheese cake when passed by a bakery. Wow... love it madly! Better than any cheese cake I had in M'sia. When we reached home around 11pm. Have my roasted chicken and baggett for dinner. And get to zzzzzzzz lor...tired!
Day 3
I woke up early today. 5am! Can't sleep well actually...my mind spinning...My dear and beloved sms me.. Replied and emailed. Fall asleep again around 8am. Sleep till 1130pm.Didn't wake buddy up as I knew he sleep quite "early". Let him rest, instead of dragging him go for shopping. I prepared breakfast---sausages with bread; honeydue and apple. Get the packing done. Wake him up ard 2pm and get dressed up to get the bus to airport. We still managed to get the the supermart nearby and grabbed a snack for beloved. Wanna him to try too... We love him as well...hehe...

Reached airport. Another round of waiting. Get to viewing deck.. hehe..my favourite to see aeroplanes.... Time flies so fast.. Is time to back home already. VIP boarding pass again! haha...sgt mengada. Another round of bus, train, walk. Reached home around 4am. I can happily zzz but pity poor buddy.. preparing for work :( . Thanks a lot.........buddy...
P/S: My buddy is too lovely to get out early in the morning at 4am to snap me photos of morning view of stockholm and rabbits around the neighbourhood :) ...I really love him for that
