To celebrate, here are a bunch of photos I took over the past few days in Stockholm. Enjoy!
Old Town Gamla Stan, in the crisp early morning light.
Pretty building facade in Gamla Stan.
Pretty alley in Gamla Stan.
One of the many bridges of Stockholm. The city is build on many islands, so there is water everywhere.
Ha!
Mmmmmm... I've missed European bakeries...
Cute Swedish guard guarding the royal palace...
... And a cute tourist taking a photo of him.
Another view of the city.
By the Royal Palace.
Tourists gathering to see the changing of the guards in front of the Palace.
One of the rooms in the palace. Bleh.
Beautiful and stylish Swedish children.
The Swedes have an obsession with their royalties too! These are postcards being sold at the palace gift shop.
Central square in Gamla Stan.
Costumed tour guides in the square, posing for tourists...
...And flirting with a pretty passer-by. :)
Obessive-compulsively square trees in front of the Parliament
Girl making ice cream cones in the shop window.
Swedish glass, which is apparently a famed specialty in the region, or so claim the gift shops...
Hot air ballons rising in the dusk from the city center.
Random and picturesque square.
Folk dancers dressed in costumes in front of the Nordic Museum.
The imposing architecture of the Nordic Museum. The exhibits though were bleh.
Another view of the city, from Katrinahissen, a high point in the city.
A cruise to Helsinki sailing out to the sea. Boyfriend and I will be on one of those tomorrow.
Sunset in Stockholm.
