We spent the day on Djurgadstajan Island. This is a tourist island with museums and an open air museum. We visited the Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde Museum. The Prince was an artist himself and has on display many paintings from his collection and many of his own landscape paintings. The museum was very nice but the price of admission was too high. One sweater or jacket. When we were done with the tour, we came to get our coats from the coat room and Norm’s was gone. We looked all over the grounds and inquired at the desk to no avail. Cindy loaned Norm her gloves and they walked to Cirkus for lunch. This is the theater where the Abba play “Mama Mia” is performing. We attempted to get tickets but were told they were obstructed view or not together. Just as well, it turns out that the performance was in Swedish! During lunch, we asked the Head Waitress where we could get Norm a new jacket and explained losing his. She called the museum twice to check on it and see if it was returned. No luck. As we were leaving, Cindy gave Norm her windbreaker to wear. The sleeves came way up his arms. As we walked out, the Head Waitress came running out the door with a heavy jacket. She told us it was used by the staff for winter smoke breaks, it was not a sexy jacket, but it was warm. What a nice person. Norm accepted it and finally was warm again. It even fit!
