Uppsala Sweden

While in Sweden, we also stayed in Uppsala a few nights. What a cute town! It is mainly a college town for the students of Uppsala University. It is so quaint and definitely in the "countryside"!!!! We could literally walk across the whole town in ~30 minutes!!! Even though it is mainly a college town today, there are still a few really nice things to see there- such as the Uppsala castle where the king used to live (apparently), the botanical gardens (lovely, but of course not keukenhof), the new music center (very fancy), some famous church in Uppsala, and the university library (which contains a silver bible).

Here are some pictures; enjoy! (sorry not so many pics of me, my friend has all of them on her camera since she had "speical" settings to make me look nicer! haha )
