Sweden: the fjords

Our cruise ship announced that we would be slowly working our way through the "fjords of Sweden" starting about 3 AM to approach Stockholm. We thought, "Oh boy, will that be anything like the pictures we see of the fjords of Norway?" Well, apparently not.
It reminded me, instead, of my homestate of Minnesota on those 100,000 lakes it is famous for, with their rocky shores, cabins and great fishing.

After coming in to Stockholm we headed back out in the evening.







And at last we were out to sea again.
