Saturday morning was the only day that we get up a bit late. We met at the station (Gullmarsplan) at half past ten. Then we took the train and we went to Gamla Stan (the old city). After ten minutes of a discussion we decided to have free time to walk arround the city and seeing the small shops until the changing of the guard at 12:00. The changing of the guard was very nice but very slowly, we had to wait around fifteen minutes until it started. They did it very well, and they were sincronized all time.

 

 When that finished we took the sheep to Skansen, the high point of Stockholm. Skansen is a setting for encounters between generations and with Swedish history. The houses and farmsteads of the countryside and the Town Quarters are inhabited by people in period costume, and living at home occupations and crafts are on display all the year round.

 

 

 

 The first that we did when we got into Skansen; we went to the restaurant to have lunch. After that we went out for a walk, and we visited all the animals of Skansen. It was a very bad day, it was rainy and cold, so many animals were hidden in their "houses".

The Swedish students showed us how is the dance of San Juan's day, finally, before we went out of Skansen, wewent to a shop where many people bought souvenirs.

 After Skansen many people went to Stockholm, and the other people went home.

 At night we went to a party in a house that they rented.

In the party we danced allmost all night. But many people were so tired and decided to sleep on the sofas. At one point of this night we had a very funny time when some boys did a striptease.

Around four o'clock we went home by bus.
