on top of Tanto

On the first day of summer my soul mate and I climbed the "Tanto Mountain" and enjoyed a good day. Tanto is a large park on Södermalm (southern Stockholm city). In the park you find many allotments where people grow vegetables or just relax. Tanto is also, I have learned, a Japanese knife favored by the woman samurai. There is no connection between the two as the Tanto Park was named after one Hans Tanto who had an estate here in 1660.

Who said the urban life has to be crowded and noisy? Amazing: inner calm in the inner city.

Peter, this is great! It has a big oumpf-factor...

"Aargl, pfff, oumpf!" Or: the Oumpf building in Phnom Penh. What's an "oumpf-factor", Bernt?

The oumpf-factor is how hard the pic hits you ;-)

Ah, so "Aargl, pfff, oumpf!" was the right assumption. Thank you Sir!
