Gröna Lund - 13th August

Got woken up at 07:10 this morning by the first plane cooking into land,  after that they were pretty regular. Seems like the hotel is on the final approach to the smaller airport, but I spose it is a reasonable hour for a Tuesday morning.

Breakfast was like the opening morning of a jumble sale, with no spare tables and people grabbing whatever food they could. We found an empty roof terrace with half a dozen tables, so based ourselves there and did quick supply runs for bacon and coffee.

Walked back to the metro station and got a single ticket for around £3 each, which allows travel on the metro, buses, trams and ferries within 75 mins.




Our destination was Gröna Lund, which is a family run theme park in the middle of Stockholm. Because we're members of the coaster club, we actually got free entry and a wristband, allowing us onto all rides and saved us about £180!

They have 7 coasters, 2 children's ones, the rest more towards the extreme end. None of them actually invert though.


Spent the whole day there, had a brilliant time and got back to the hotel around 11pm, ready for a good night's sleep.
