Skokloster


Today we went with Irisha and Gesha to Skokloster castle, which is a 55 km trip by car from Uppsala. From Knivsta Gesha drove the CR-V. When we arrived to Skokloster, we found the parking field crowded with old Italian cars (Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, etc). Obviously there was some kind of meeting. After a walk through the car exhibition and a hot dog, we went to the castle and took a guided tour. It was interesting - especially the unfinished ball room, and the three rooms filled with weapon collection from the 17th century. Most fascinating we found the fact that the whole castle has been so well preserved.

Передавай привет родителям!

Кстати, в Скоклостер бывают бесплатные туры (дешевые) от университета с очень хорошим гидом (был по крайне мере такой).

Hej Ruslanchik! Privet to you from all of us!

The guide in Skokloster was really good so we do not regret these 40 kr/pers that we paid for the excursion ;)
