  After some time in Washington DC and a visit to Annapolis and the U.S. Naval Academy the Swedish Royal Navy's training vessel HMS Falken will dock in Philadelphia on March 20. The vessel will be docked at the Independence Seaport Museum and is welcoming the public to visit at 1-4 pm on March 21, 22 and 23.

• There's no entrance fee, no prior registration and everyone is welcome—but there's a limit of 200 visitors so arrive early for an opportunity to see the proud training schooner, which continues a tradition since the 1700s.
