Today is my first day in Stockholm. I've been here before but from what I remember, I don't think we saw much of the city. I was walking downtown today and I don't remember ANY of it. Well when I got here this morning around 10, it wasn't raining, but the weather was real bad... And it only got worse. I walked around town and found a place to eat, and then just decided to walk around and look at buildings. It started to rain, and then it was pouring. People were running for overhangs and everything. Then it started thundering, and it started raining even harder. I went to the train station partially drenched, bought my ticket to Göteborg, and as I was leaving it was pouring beyond belief. No one was going outside - just waiting for it to stop. After 5 minutes (I have no umbrella or rain jacket or jacket... its August!) I said F it, and I went to walk to the hostel, which is like 500 meters away. I have never been so wet in my life. Streets were flooded up to my calves, and I couldn't even see the sidewalks at some part. I took a picture or two of a whirlpool where the drain was taking only so much water.
Hopefully tomorrow the weather is better so I can see part of the city I've already missed seeing once.
