It was a little overcast when the day started. Ted and I drove to Tullgarn Castle, which we believed opened at 10:00. Ooops. 11:00 . I can say I saw Tullgarn. Not the inside though. From there, it was about a 45 minute drive to Griphsolm Castle in Mariefred. Gripsholm houses Sweden's National Portrait Gallery. We had lunch at a local cafe, and then the car ferry to get us to Drottningholm.

2 of the rooms featured portraits of the other reigning monarchs during the age of several Swedish kings. George III was a contemporary of Gustav III. |

I am really surprised at how many portraits they have of foreign monarchs.
2 rooms were portraits of contemporaries.
Fascinating and lovely flowers.
