History


It all started with the winning of 2 first class Continental RTW tickets from the American Express Wishlist way back in 2007 equivalently delivered with 560K miles. 6 years later with the merger of United and Continental, topping off the account to 700K miles with credit card offers, and a planned Leave of Absence from work, this trip is actually taking place starting 4/3/2013 and ending 6/28/2013.

Stockholm Highlights

Our time in Stockholm is coming to an end and we've had a very good time in this unique place, but unfortunately we didn't get to see it in full swing as we unknowingly hit their biggest holiday "Midsommar" and thus most things were closed and lots of locals were not even here. We still met some great local people though.

Tomorrow we move on to our final destination on this 87 day journey, Amsterdam. One last place, and we picked one of the most fun at that. Then on June 28th we will be flying home.

Here are some Stockholm pictures for you to enjoy.
