Military Hotels

Right now I am in Stockholm for a project together with the Swedish military academy. They booked me into a hotel called Tapto so I was expecting a slightly military slant to the hotel and I was not disappointed. Outside the hotel was a military man in uniform waiting for a taxi, or a tank but I doubt that… since I think he was navy.

In the hallways there were military prints – still not surprising. I was a bit surprised by the glass cases with dummies dressed in military uniforms (old and new). A bit unusual for a hotel.

The best bit was when I got into the room. Instead of the traditional bible on the bedside table what do you think I found? It was Alistair Maclean’s “Puppet on a String”…

Obviously the new testament is not action-packed enough.
