The Nordic Lights


Can you tell that we are staying at the Nordic Light Hotel?  This photo doesn't do justice to the red glow that  greeted us as we walked into the room last night. The receptionist tried to get us to "upgrade" our room to one with Mood Lighting, a bathtub and a larger room, but we declined.  We certainly don't need our senses getting too overloaded!  Besides, you could stick two of the rooms from our last B&B into this one. And the shower is twice as large as well.  Plus we even got a bar of soap and a bottle of shampoo called "A Good Hair Day" which seems to live up to its name. Or it could just be that the hotel blow dryer actually had power, unlike the last place!

The lobby is equally entertaining with tree trunk slabs for tables and interesting lighting displays along with what I presume one calls "mood music".  I believe that it is supposed to be calming.  Can't say for certain as there were several men at breakfast this morning who appeared to be in a bad "mood".

And, speaking of breakfast, you better believe that I'll be going to bed a bit hungry tonight so that I have room tomorrow to dig into the fabulous foods that they have presented so beautifully.

Now that I'm armed with a satisfied tummy, great hair and a happy mood, I'll be off to explore the city of Stockholm.  Better bring my umbrella.....grey clouds seem to be rolling in!
