Another glorious day. We have been so lucky with the weather on this trip, but it we expect it will be quite a shock getting back to the UK dark.
Our destination today was Stockholm. We stayed at a paid campsite on the outskirts to stock up and empty out. There was enough of the day left to head into the city for a look.
They seem to be reclaiming a large swath of waterside which has made a bit of a mess of the large bridge into the city. Note the liners in the background. There were a fair few tourists in town!
A training barque moored at one of the city's islands
J and I both thought we'd been transported to Italy (not helped by a number of passing Italians). Honestly, it could have been part of Rome or Venice rather than Stockholm.
The royal guard. Mostly women with very shiny helmets
Doesn't he know it's rude to point a gun at someone?
About a dozen of these rotated around a number of positions. It seemed they were continually marching around the palace swapping places with each other. That'd confuse the baddies!
Finally J gets her moose
Must have been a long barrel to begin with. Now it can shoot around corners
Showerometer: 17 but +2 for the attached sauna!
