More Stockholm
These first pictures are from the Vasa Ship. This beautiful war ship with duel gun decks survived on the water for one hour before it sank in 1628.It was found and raised in 1961. The ship was 95% intact after 333 years. It seams the water is less salty. Melissa is sitting in what was used for 'scuba' diving. A person would stand in that and be lowered into the water. They were able to stay about 30 feet down for approximately 15 minutes. The bones were one of the victims of the ship.
After an exhausting day walking the city of Stockholm, we relaxed in the Ice Bar. Everything is made of ice even the TV is encased in ice. People are booked in for 45 minute intervals and Cindy was told most only last 20-25 minutes. We survived for 40 minutes before our toes were completely frozen!!
