Walking on ice

In Stockholm, it is a very popular winter passtime to go on the ice. with skates or just with boots.

Sunny Sunday

It was a beautiful one!

This time I had a walk with my Hubby, on another popular walking path. This is Norr Malarstrand, which is not by the sea but by the lake called Malaren.

I took these 3 pictures from the same point:

More boats & ice

The last few pics from my walk on Saturday afternoon

My fingers got frozen at least 6 times, although I was shooting in gloves. Even by the end (about 2 hours later) my lungs started to freez. Ice and snow everywhere, but hot tea only at home, in about one hour more.

And by the way, with these new pictures that I put here from Flickr, you can even see the more or less exact location of the pictures on the map




On this one, you can also find me .-)














Back towards the bridge:


Already on the city side of the bridge:

Beyond the bridge, at Djurgarden

Now I have to make some experiments with the layout and the pictures, because Blogger changed the way of storing images. I hope you will enjoy the new look, as soon as I found how would it be best :-)

That's where I started my walk on Saturday afternoon

Now we are already on the island, view of the city side:


And the island:


Beyond th corner of the island, there is a little harbor. On some boats, people are LIVING, all year round.






And this one is an old ship, museum of the Vasa which was built in the 17th century and sunk immediately:

Djurgardsbron

Langholmen in winter

I took these pictures on a nice green piece in Stockholm, called Langholmen. That's where I started the October walk with my husband. Now we went in another direction, to the West corner of the island, to catch something of the sunset.
