Arctic Expedition 6 continued

Our last day in Linköping. Magnus and I said our goodbye's last night, as he had to leave early for work, and wouldn't be home before we left.
We slept late from all the partying, and had to pack and head out to see Simon's work.  The sunrise was just beautiful, though.


He works with the animals at the discovery museum in Gamla Stan (Old Town).


 He loves working with all of the animals, mostly snakes, lizards, spiders and scorpions, along with a beautiful aquarium with lots of coral.  We had a bunch of fun looking at all the animals in the back room, before going onto the main floor to check out the bigger ones. 












Then we had a little breakfast at the cafe in old town....

and then Julie found the best salt licorice,  according to her. She loves the Cloetta candy store!

Back home to have lunch with Maggan, more of the luscious mushroom soup then to the train station for our long-awaited overnight journey through Sweden all the way to the tippy top into the Arctic Circle....
