August 4, 2025: Today we took an hour long ferry to Dtrottningholm Palace, which is both open to the public and the current home of the Swedish Royal family. It is similar to Versailles, but on a smaller scale. The weather was perfect and we enjoyed touring the house and exploring the gardens. We had an afternoon snack of Swedish waffles and I chose to have goat cheese, honey and walnuts on mine. For dinner we went to Pelikan, a restaurant that serves traditional Swedish food, and I had their delicious Swedish meatballs with mashed potatoes, gravy, lingonberries and bread and butter pickles.
