Gothenburg - Haga

Grabbed a bite at the Garden Cafe, and went back to the room to watch the docking. Our excursion is at 1:15, so went down to Bliss for a sit before a chicken salad sandwich at O'Sheehans.

We met our bus for a drive around Gothenburg. The city is only @400 years old, and has a rich Maritime history. We visited the Masthugg church- I discovered it's Church of Sweden- a Lutheran related denomination, which came about during the Swedish revolution. Great views from the area in front of the Church.

We then went to Haga- an area of Gothenburg with lots of shops and cafes. Cinnamon buns are a thing, and all the cafes had them- so when in Haga... we did, too. These people take their cinnamon rolls seriously - the large ones are about 10" across. We shared a small one, and it was plenty.

A drive around gave us some more scenic views, including statues of Poseidon and Gustavus Adolfus. Then return to the ship. We sat for awhile in O'Sheehans, listening to a string trio that made contemporary music sound classical.

We rested a bit then popped up to the Garden Cafe - a little nosh and crepes.En savoir plus
