Help in Stockholm
We are a family of five flying in to Nykoping with an 8 hour layover (by design). We would like to take a train into Stockholm and back and see maybe one thing. I have Swedish blood and would appreciate the one thing to see during this layover. Tox a mica! or however they spell that!

I'd stroll around the old town.
We went to the Vasa Museum, which was interesting, but I think I would be disappointed if that was the only thing I saw in Stockholm. It is very famous though and my husband loved it. I think most kids love it, but mine thought it only ok.
(Kids (13 and 11 year old boys) and I much preferred a ferry ride to Vaxholm Fastnings Museum (sp?), but that may take too much.)

Gamla Stan or, if you have time, a canal cruise. Stockholm is absolutely beautiful and the waterways are a big part of that. if time is short, I wouldn't spend it in a museum. Another alternative might be the open air museum, Skansen. Some people say it's hokey but I thought it was well done, and really liked it. you know the k in Nykoping is sounded as a sh?
