Pastries and coffee in bed was how our Stockholm recovery day started! No bikes, no camping and no rush. Just a day of strolling the city streets and taking in the sights.
A short train ride got us into the main hub of the old town, where we stopped for some ‘dagens’ which is a bit like having the ‘plate du jour’ in France. We ate outside so we could watch the world go by. The price included a cool beer and salad to start and a delicious main meal. We moved inside the the cool of the air-con after eating for a complimentary tea and coffee to finish. The whole experience was a real treat and very relaxing. Lovely stuff.
It gave us enough energy to see a few more sights during the afternoon, although we did stop in a park for a short nap later!
Loads of beautiful buildings. Photos not really doing them justice though. In an incredible shopping area called ‘the mood’, we stopped for some pizza and wine as the cool comfy seats looked too good to pass by!
The train delivered us easily back to our trendy end of the city (Södermalm), after a great day out and about. In this heat it’s virtually impossible to ‘rest’, but it felt good to be taking it easy anyway...
