Stockholm

We spent the day in Stockholm. We were amazed at the history of the city as well as the design. Stockholm has buildings that span more than one thousand years. It is a series of fourteen islands connected by forty-four bridges. Sometimes you don't realize when you have moved from one island to another, and other times the bridge is merely a wonderful place to get pictures that wouldn't be possible otherwise.

We are always amazed by old cities. And Stockholm is old. But mixed in with the ancient is the new, modern conveniences of 21st century life. It's a great city to visit!

However, we have to mention that we appear to do our touring in the coldest times of the year, so to say we froze to death would not be too much of an exageration! Posted by Picasa
