6th of June

Today we went to Stockholm (again) to celebrate the Swedish national day. We arrived to the Royal Palace at 10, where Princess Victoria, Prince Carl-Philip, and Princess Madeleine opened the gates to the public at a short ceremony. At the other side of the gate, we had coffee and cake on the yard, and then went inside the buildings that were extra open today. After the palace we had lunch at Gåsgränd and coffee at Gråmunken in Stockholm old town. We then went back to the Royal Palace to see the guard changing ceremony, which was extra nice today with lots of horses, best military troops, etc. At 1400, we listened to Herman Lindqvist speaking about royal children in the Hall of State (Rikssalen) in the palace.

I thought that it is royal palace, not castle. Did I missunderstand something (as usual)? :)
