I waited impatiently for Jonathan's train to arrive at the station this morning, and then I had a full day planned to get the jet lag out of his system. He made it (barely), and he'll thank me tomorrow (maybe) 😴
We headed first to Gamla Stan. The old town. Here we saw the traditional changing of the guard at the Royal Palace, Tysk Krykan (the German church), Mårten Trotzigs Gränd (the narrowest street in the world), the Myntkabinettet (world money museum), and toured the Alfred Nobel Museum.

| Jonathan found a tiny chair to rest while we walked around :) |
Fika is an important part of Swedish life, so we stopped by Kaffekopen on Stortorget (the main square) for coffees and a slice of rhubarb pie.

I can now say that I've ridden a boat as a form of public transportation because we took the ferry over to Djurgården on the way home (ish) to check in out for tomorrow. It was a beautiful view and we saw a rainbow.

It was good first day. Jonathan was a trooper, and he is very excited for sleep now. We're already old hands at public transportation and we're excited for tomorrow.
It's so nice having him here 💕
