Lulea, Sweden
Apoteket Ljonet
Today, we were at the Apoteket Ljonet just down the street from our hotel. This is the largest pharmacy in northern Sweden. Ljonet means lion. A pharmacist named Mia took us around and talked to us about how their pharmacy is laid out and their workflow.
We also got to visit a pharmacy in a nearby mall which is also an Apoteket AB pharmacy.
Then we went to lunch at a nearby cafe.
Then Josh and I were at a loss for something to do, so we went to the Kulturhus (Culture House), where we found a section of English books in the Biblioteket (Library). We read for an hour and a half or so--we might go back tomorrow depending on how early we get done.
Then we headed down the street to the Norrbotten Museum which is free. Everything was in Swedish, we didn't really have much to read about. There were some interesting Sami things in there.
Me with some dishes in front of a mural of a group of people. Not really sure what they're doing...
Josh had to take a nap because he was worn out...just kidding! This was just a scene depicted in the museum.
Trying to make a fire in a tent!
Josh poses as a Sami.
Officially, my favorite thing from the museum gift shop...no idea why it was in there, but it was!
Then we stopped in a little cafe where we had some dessert. It's a curse I'm trying to break. It was a fabulous time, though. I had basically a brownie pie with ice cream! Yum! Josh had some sort of fruity cake with ice cream. We went back later to hear the owner's niece and her friends sing and play music.
Now I'm off to work out for the second day in a row. Get excited about it because you know I am...and stay tuned for tomorrow's fun details!
