Vasa museum--Rivian backpack spotted

[Laserboy1054]

I was visiting the Vasa museum, in Stockholm, Sweden last week and spotted someone in front of me with a Rivian backpack. I didn't shout "hey, Rivian dude!" and the wearer vanished into the crowd. I now regret not being a bit more proactive! Just wondering if it was someone else on this forum.

BTW: the Vasa is in the top-ten list of coolest museums I've ever visited! It contains an "entire" 17th century galleon. Highly recommended.

Funny enough I was at that museum too last a week but alas had no Rivian gear.

Agree it’s a must visit while in Stockholm

Wow! Crazy small world. We were at the Vasa Museum 2 wks ago! No backpack though. Maybe Rivian owners are just a bunch of Viking-wannabe's

Yeah--boat nerds! It _is_ an interesting correlation. My visit to Stockholm was part of a larger trip that started in Helsinki and included a drive up to Rovaniemi, Finland so I could experience the Summer Solstice on the Arctic Circle--I really missed my R1T on that drive. From there, down the Swedish coast and over by ferry to Åland for the European Science Fiction Convention. Thence to Gotland because seeing a skull with no fewer than three crossbow bolts in it is not to be missed! (A few days on the Arctic Circle while my friends back home dealt with 94 degree/90% humidity gives a special kind of smug.)

Lots of EV's there (no Rivian's), I would guess about 25% of all cars. This photo was taken in Östermalm - wealthy side of town. I thought it was interesting that their parking meters also served as charging stations.

Yep, the Vasa museum is first rate.
