Beautiful Stockholm

For a very long time Sweden for me was just plain geography - i know the capital and where it is, just in case i enter "Who wants to be a Millionaire"
This visit to stockholm i decided to spend my friday in Stockholm instead of Cairo - and it was a great call.
The sun was shining so the weather was "beautiful" by Scandinavian standrads (which means a frozen nose, fingers, toes and ass by my sub-tropical standards)
I went on a boat tour to do some sightseeing, and the view was breathtaking - first of all the buildings are all old and massive and look so charming and it's soooooooooo green like nothing i have ever seen before. I also saw the house of one of the ABBA group members =)

Then i went to the Royal Palace to check out the crown jewels of course - it was really nice, but i have to say that the crown jewels of England are way better!
But i find it even more fascinating that in Sweden even though the King has a son, he will pass down the throne to his eldest who happens to be a girl!

And then i went on a mad shopping spree and i FINALLY saw the da vinci code movie. I can't remember the book that much, but i think it's a little different than the movie.
The book was good - not awesome, just good - but the movie was quite average.

After seeing the film i think i support the Egyptian government to sensor the movie. It's not for the christians - i know that most of them will dismiss the film as just a story and as BS coz they have faith. The thing is that some of the extreme muslims will just use it as proof for their theory that the chirsitanity that exists this day is not the right christianity and will thus be more encouraged to think of and possibly even treat christians as non-believers.
And that will add to tensions especially when you have such great egyptian youth whose balls are bigger than their brains
So i think this is one of the few times where i will agree with cencorship and with the Egyptian government - Saggel ya tareekh!
