the people's home

There comes a time in life when we no longer move about at warp speed and take corners on two wheels. Stockholm aims to be a good city for the elderly with a wide spectrum of services available and accessible when the pace and the priorities are different. Have we been successful? One day I may find out.

highway

The Essingeleden highway cuts its way through the trees between Vinterviken ("Bay of Winter") and lake Trekanten ("the Triangle"). Here are more posts about Essingeleden and the motorway.

waiting for a train

People waiting in the main hall of the railway station Stockholm Central. Here you find long distance trains, regional and commuter trains. Since 1958 the station is joined together with T-Centralen, the central subway station, through an underground passage. Some 450000 people travel here every day making it the largest station in the Nordic countries.

Ever had one of those days?

let them eat cake !

Whether you're short on bread or that sweeter stuff, rest assured that Café Petit Four in Väsby centrum has plenty on offer. However, this particular item has been on display for years so I wouldn't start chewing on it anytime soon.
