Norra Brunn Comedy

Tonight we visited Norra Brunn Comedy to see the stand up comedians Pontus Enhörning, Patrik Larsson, and Jack Mittleman. They were all good, but we rank Pontus Enhörning highest and Patrik Larsson lowest among the three. The pub was also nice and many people there had dinner. If you want to have dinner, you need to book several weeks in advance. Therefore most of the dinner guests are probably tourists. If you go there by car, remember to allocate lots of time for finding a parking place.

Our rating: 4 out of 5.

Army and Music Museum in Stockholm

Today we have visited the Army Museum and the Music Museum in Stockholm. In the Army Museum we had a one hour guided tour - a crash course on Swedish history with focus on the most successful part (1600 to 1700). In the Music Museum it was most fun just to get a chance to play or listen to all the instruments.

Our rating: 4 out of 5 (Army museum), and 3 out of 5 (Music museum).

If Stockholm Open

Today, we have been at If Stockholm Open - an annual tennis tournament on the ATP tour. It is arranged in Kungliga tennishallen in Stockholm. We found it extremely nice to the some very highly ranked tennis players in action, e.g. James Blake ranked #8 in the world.

Our rating: 5 out of 5.

Macbeth

Yesterday we saw Macbeth by William Shakespeare, played on the big stage at Dramaten in Stockholm. It was a show filled with well-known Swedish actors, like Reine Brynolfsson, Lena Endre, Börje Ahlstedt, and many other. They did a good job, but the play was quite dark and dull, and not very entertaining.

Our rating: 2 out of 5 (Macbeth).
