Scandinavia
    Highlights of Denmark,
       Sweden and Norway
The Nyhavn Canal, 300 years old, is one of Copenhagen's most attractive spots.  Formerly a cargo port, boats still dock at Nyhavn, plus it's a canal tour favorite.  Denmark is noted for colorful historic sites and buildings.       
The Vasa Museum in Stockholm takes us back to Sweden's worst naval disaster.  It happened in 1628, when the ornate, mighty warship Vasa, flagship of the fleet, was launched with great fanfare, immediately sinking  right to the bottom of Stockholm's harbor.  Over 300 years later the ship was raised and restored.  A gigantic, unique relic of the 17th century.        
Oslo's Viking Museum features the last two remaining Viking ships in fine condition.  They had been used as tombs on land, in Norway and were excavated.  Above is the Oseberg's prow, a ship buried in 834, when Vikings ruled the seas.
