around Uppsala

After a full night of sleep, we're refreshed. No real jetlag feeling. We took it slow in the morning and went on a bit of siteseeing. We all managed to fit in Kasia's Toyota Corolla Verso which I think is the same as a Toyota Matrix in Canada (Chris, tell me if I'm right).

We visited Ulva Kvarn, some buildings with a glass blowing studio, pottery studio, other trades and cafe. It is overlooking the Fyrisån River, which at one point runs through downtown Uppsala.

Antique shop inside Ulva Kvarn. Great display of books on a Gustaviansk style sofa.

Domkyrkan, cathedral in downtown Uppsala. Largest in Scandinavia and built in the 1200s. I think that's me in the photo at the bottom.

Painted ceilings and walls in cathedral.
