I have a LOOONG layover in Stockholm for 2 days this summer. Can anyone recommend "must see" things. I'm headed to London and I am fortunate to have e layover in Stockholm for a short period - certainly not enough time but enough to wet my appetite.

The Vasa Museum is one of the best museums in Europe in my opinion. This ship sunk 20 minutes into its journey in the 1600s and was raised in the 1960s. The story of the ship and how they raised it is fascinating. Gamla Stan is the old town and it is always worth a wander. Stockholms Stadshuset (City Hall) offers a great tour. This is where the Nobel Prize dinner is held each December 10th. Skansen is a large open air museum. Check their schedule as they sometimes have special events (e.g. folk dancing, crafts, etc.) Those would be my top 4.
