We were in Stockholm for a week and it is a gorgeous city of islands, so we ended up taking a lot of pictures. I’ve tried to pull out a few of the pictures to show some of the places we visited and things we did on our vacation.
Södermalm (one of the islands)
Nystekt Strömming, a fried fish stand in Södermalm
Gamla Stan (the old town, another of the islands)
Kungliga Slottet (Stockholm Palace)
Vaktparaden (changing of the Royal Guard)
Central Stockholm
Skeppsholmen (another of the islands)
Kastellholmen (another of the islands) with a cruise ship in the background
Östermalm (the neighborhood where we stayed)
Stadshuset (Stockholm City Hall) on Kungsholmen (another of the islands)
Lunch at Blå Porten on Djurgården, an island with Gröna Lund (an amusement park), Skansen (a Colonial Williamsburg sort of place) and other parks and museums
Riddarholmen (another of the islands)
Fjäderholmarna (an island a short ferry ride from central Stockholm)
Celebratory aquavit at the smörgåsbord at the lovely Grand Hotel where J's parents treated us to a wonderful dinner in honor of J's father's birthday
