Today is the last day of this trip. Excluding flying. Flying doesn't count.
We are in Uppsala, about an hour north of Stockholm. This is the old center of Sweden where the Vikings had settlements that were built on top of older settlements. We walked up to Gamla Uppsala, or Old Uppsala today and saw the old burial mounds built by pre-viking civilization. It was pretty interesting! There is also an old church there that was built on the site of the main pagan temple for a large area.
This trip has been so wonderful. We are very very thankful for how well everything has gone, how safe we have been, and we have managed to navigate unknown cities and languages. It has been fun!
Home is sounding very nice though. I look forward to my own bed.
