A Rest or More Exploring

This weekend was composed of two days of some needed rest and relaxation, but for others it’s a chance for another adventure. There was an array of different activities happening between all of the students and faculty. Many of the students went back to Stockholm or Norrtälje to wander more and experience more of the cities. Figuring out the bus schedules were an interesting journey for many. There are also some students that choose to stay in Stockholm for the night as well to extend their Stockholm adventures. Many other students stayed within Väddö, to use the days to relax or explore the surrounding area by walking or by bike.

The picture of the sea above was from one of the adventures. The students walked one hour to go to a sandy beach and experience the Baltic Sea. There was a lot of cool geology, sea plants, and sea creatures to explore while they were there. However, the Baltic Sea isn’t warm and both of the students that went there can both confirm that the temperature is comparable to Lake Superior. By the end of the day they had walked a little over 10 miles to complete their adventures. Everyone enjoyed having time to catch up on some R&R or explore the surrounding area.

Can’t wait for what tomorrow will bring,
