A wonderful country! Yes a week or so does not make one an expert, but what I saw and the people I met were indeed wonderful!
The production company “Acne” was superb. We were treated royally. We, being eight American actors who were flown there just for this gig. We were fed on Salmon.
Shish kabob and other foods too numerous to mention.
The filming went well. I was last as always. Yes a few takes. On one the Director said “You cannot do it better than that!”
Everyone spoke English including the man on the street. Our hotel was the
“Scandic Anglia.” If not a 5 star hotel it had to be close. It cost close to $300.00 per night. All paid for by Acne. I extended my stay and they were glad to pay the tab.
I did not stay as long as planned. Sightseeing alone is not fun. Next time I will twist my wife’s arm to make sure she goes.
The people are blonde and tanned, why the tans I don’t know. Blondes in California would burn!
There are hundreds of Islands around Stockholm. Many boats ply the waters. I since learned it is called
"The Swedish Archipeligo"
I visited a few Islands and stumbled into a “Framers Market” being set up! (It was 8:00 am)
Made a few “friends” and bought a few gifts.
The hard part was the 12-hour flight. I wore compression stockings and walked and exercised often. I had no problem. Even the food on Lufthansa was okay!
The German barking orders over the PA were a tad disconcerting! He sounded like a character from a war film!
The cast was super and will hopefully see a few of then in LA.
The first 3 gorgeous Swedish girls I saw (cast) turned out to be from LA!
Photos of buildings are not my thing. Sure I took a few. I find people more interesting.
What they do and how they live is fascinating to me.
