In Stockholm, there is a truly Swedish activity that everyone makes fun of – taking the ferry overnight to Finland. Also known as the booze cruise, it’s an opportunity for the lone cougar to attack her young 25 year-old prey, or for the young male cub to pounce on a more mature tigress. The possibilities are endless. They’ve even done a reality TV show on the cruise. Yep, this is the Tallink/Silja Line ferry to Finland.
My friend Josh and his fiancée Kellee are going on the ferry tonight. There are plenty of stories about how crazy the cruise gets, how people don’t sleep all night, and all the cheap duty-free booze you can buy once you get into international waters. I’ll post an update as soon as I know more about how their cruise goes…
