Thanks, Otto. We sure did… the rain was a bit of a welcome relief. We hit some unusually hot weather while we were there especially earlier in Stockholm and Denmark.

Hi Patti, I really enjoy everyday moments on the street so this was a fun theme. I agree, it’s amazing that there aren’t more accidents — also, more surprised faces of people realizing what they are missing in the world around them. 😉Thanks!

If you’re looking for a good venue to people watch, it’s at a horse show – preferably hunter/jumper. Most shows are free admission, from the little kid events to the grand prix. Just bring your own food and drink, vendors are too expensive.
