In Upsala there is viking graves. The story how they buried the Kings was facinating. It was the most beautiful day with clear blue sky and the snow on the viking graves. It was something I shall remember.

Hello,
We are friend 30+ years and would like to have a beer or two (;)) in a nice bar near centrum. Do You have suggestions for great pubs/bars which are open daytime and have nice atmosphere?
Thank You in advance.
We'd love if there would be swedish music (på svenska) in the bar... And locals...
Best pub I know is this: www.gfw68.com It is in the Gamla Stan.
I do not think they play any Swedish music, but maybe Kent ;-)
Another good place is this: www.bishopsarms.com not far from the station.
These both pubs also serve unique local Swedish breweries beers if you are interested.

While walking along Kungsgatan I came across this intersting sculpture (if I guess correctly, it's right outside Konserthuset, anyone?). As usual, if I see anything interesting, "snap it" regardless of what it is. There's always delight in the unknown :-) & hopefully before long, I'll find out what it is. Sometimes, that's the way with friends as well.
The area around Kungstatan (the Kings street) is the main cinema street in Stockholm. On Kungsgatan you find the following cinemas:
SF Rigoletto - Kungsgatan 16
Sandrews Royal - Kungsgatan 37
SF Saga - Kungsgatan 24
In the area just outside Kungsgatan you find five more cinemas.
The main Swedish cinema companies are:
SF
Sandrews
You have to discover the Archipelago.
You will be stunned by the beauty
and serenity and wonderful nature.

Most Swedes love to speak English and will use any excuse they can to do so, in fact I have on several occasions come across Swedes pretending to be foreigners, usually Americans since most Swedes speak with an American accent, even though they are though British English in school. These people usually come out during the summer but I doubt they fool anyone and I think they only target Swedes. Most Swedes will be glad to help if it means they get to speak English.
A lot of American expressions and works have worked their way in to the Swedish language, mostly foul words used but kid/teens.
Swedes have a tendency of translate Swedish sayings in to English thinking they will make sense, and if they don?t know the word in English they may use the Swedish version hoping it sounds similar which can sometimes lead to confusions.
Swedes won?t expect you to know any Swedish but I?m sure they will laugh if you try to speak it.
Swedes are full of surprises and sometimes it helps just to ask really loud if anyone speaks your language, like the time when I was at a small gift shop in Gamla Stan and the desperate store clerk said, 'Ah, does anyone here speak Russian!?' and a woman in the store said, 'Yes' and went over to translate and solve the problem with the Russian couple.
