Biggest Globe I've Ever Seen
It is fun to look at Ericsson Globe, formerly known as the Stockholm Globe Arena or Globen through our window. It is actually a part of my daily routine to look at it while sitting on our sofa. As usual, I'm always impressed by its notable appearance and awesome structure. It really looks like a huge golf ball during the days and during the nights, it seems like a disco ball that keeps on flaunting and showcasing various colors.
Globen is one of many attractions that can be found in Sweden. As for the record, it is said to be the largest model of the Solar System in the world. Its measurement is 279 feet (height) and 361 feet (width), with sitting capacity of 16,000 people. To know more about Ericsson Globe, visit wikipedia.
Globen serves as a landmark for me, that's why I easily find my way back home for the first couple of months of staying in Sweden. Whenever I roam around Stockholm (just by myself), I just follow its direction and I know I'm heading down the right path back to my place.
And for me, it is the biggest globe I have ever seen in my entire life.
Today, you can also see a cottage that is placed upon the globe. The cottage is placed on May 26, 2009, and will remain on the top of the globe until October 2009.
