When Rebecca came to visit back in September, I didn't really know my way around Stockholm yet, so I basically threw a guidebook at her and told her to make herself at home. Well, partly because Rebecca spent her time in Stockholm just chilling out and partly because I gave her no guidance, she had a bit of a lame time here. I'm not so much for staying out late partying these days (guess I'm getting old), but I really am capable of putting together a fine travel itinerary if I just put my mind to it. After all, who was the brains behind the wedding party train this summer? Ahem.So, my mom and dad (pretend that's them at left) are coming to town next week, and this time around I may have flipped out in the opposite direction of Rebecca's visit by creating the Swedish Experience Extraordinaire. They literally have an hour-by-hour game plan for their entire week (with built-in free time, natch). Massage appointments? Booked. Julbord rezziess at the Grand Hotel? Yup! Archipelago tour? Ja vist. Museums, shopping, Skansen, herring, cocktails, holiday fairs, Gamla Stan, changing of the guard? Chhhhhhhhheck.
Now what I want to know is, who's next on the Capital of Scandinavia tour? Your time is running out! Rhonda? Heather? Anyone... Bueller?

Me, me, me! Can I come?! I know someone in Stockholm. I'd like to visit.
Step back John! This is Maggie and Gary's excellent adventure!
Oh, baby, I was counting you as a sure thing!
i love getting mentioned on this blog
Just remember your parents are old, very old. In fact your mother is so old she sent a mass email asking that we all discontinue from sending her dirty jokes for the week because she would be in Sweden and didn't want to have all of that traffic to clear when she got home. Does that sound like an old person talking?
