Thursday 7/25/13
We woke at around 07:15 got ready and headed down to the train station to make sure that our train was on time and to check the platform number. All was good and we had around an hour to spare so we did a little more exploring of Stockholm. What a beautiful city. Prague and Stockholm are probably the nicest and cleanest cities we have been to. Prague's streets are narrower and the buildings are taller so it feels a little more cramped but very clean and one thing we noticed, no beggars. Stockholm's streets are a little wider and the buildings don't seem as tall. Things seem a little more open and not so congested. We made our train and left around 10:21 headed for Copenhagen. Our travel time to Denmark took us roughly 5 hours. That gave us about 3 hours in Copenhagen before our next train left. We made it and we were able to wander the city for around 2.5 hours. A nice city but very crowded. Lots and lots of people. This city is not as clean as the other two I talked about. Paris and Rome were very dirty as well. We definitely have our opinions on the different cities and which ones we would visit again.
Around 18:30 we boarded our night train to Amsterdam. We were able to get a 4 berth unit this time so we do have someone with us that we don't know. Well we will make another friend hopefully.
Our roommate is Paul from Nigeria, not to talkative I guess that is good seeing that we need to get some sleep tonight.
Our trip will last until 10:49 tomorrow morning. Not too exciting on the train for that long but we do make up a lot of time and have a room for the night. We will probably head to Corrie Ten Boom's house and catch a tour. From there we don't have any definite plans. Lots of train travel, short nights, make for some weary days. Tonight should be good sleep.
