Thanks Jack Bob Bruce Tim Dan Ken and others who have taken a look. Glad you liked the Blue Light Special Bruce! Tim, Stockholm is a fascinating city with interesting history and nice vistas. But don't take my photos as representative - much of it is block after block of fairly undistinguished 5-story buildings shoulder to shoulder. But here are nice parks and pedestrian streets, and the Old Town (Gamla Stan) where I took most of these shots, with narrow winding alleys and centuries-old buildings, is a real gem.
Our meeting had a reception this evening in the City Hall. We gathered initially in the Blue Room where Nobel Laureates have a banquet, then had our reception in the Gold Room where they adjourn for dancing after dinner. Hosted by the Deputy Chair of the City Council. I thought we should have rated the real Chairman, but oh well. Tomorrow night is a dinner and private tour of the Vassa Museum. It's nice to be working again, temporarily, and getting the ancillary perks. stan On Apr 6, 2014, at 8:02 PM, Ken Waller <[email protected]> wrote: > Enjoyed the images Stan. > > Kenneth Waller > http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/kennethwaller > > ----- Original Message ----- From: "Daniel J.
