Forth and Back
And so, here I am, back from my trip to Stockholm. The weather
was generally nice, with occasional showers and strong wind. I
was wearing my fur coat so it was okay.
The hostel we stayed in was very conveniently located next to
the underground stop, and it was 4 minutes by it to the old
town. We bought Stockholm Card for free public transport and
visited a number of museums. The food wasn’t good but we
didn’t have any choice.
The prices there are something out of this world! Everything was
very expensive as for our teacher’s salary. However, the same malady
goes for Vilnius: I’ve just returned from the mall. I bought a pair of
jeans and two sweaters because I’m almost wearing rags, and I paid
the price of a one-way plane ticket (economy class). I still want
a new coat but that’s not until next fall.
Tomorrow is a public holiday due to All Saints. I willt ry to do
some lesson preparation or just head for the cinema.
