I had the day off today, so after finishing the boring things I had to do (like laundry) we took the bus and train downtown. Hubby was done with work early too so he decided to join us. After meeting up with a friend at the station we went to wakamama for some lunch. Ramen! :) The food was good but the music was too loud for me.

Non-Violence sculpture. (You probably recognise it, there are others like it in many cities) |
After being properly fed we went for some shopping and a bit of caching. We visited my favourite teastore on Drottninggatan. The store tiny, but it's crammed full of good tea (much of it ecological), and the lady running it is a real tea enthusiast so there's always a good story about every tea you buy.

Yeah... Hubby got a bit carried away. |
Another interesting store in the neighbourhood is
Stockholms Aeter & Essencefabrik. They sell spices, eteric oils, flavourings for liqour and all kinds of interesting stuff. Gustav (hubby) got some ingredients for making glögg (mulled wine) according to an old pharmacy recepie.
|
They've been around since 1889. The signs outside are old fashined and really pretty. |
|
It looks a bit like an old pharmacy inside with all the bottles. |
Last but not least... I've come to understand that
fika is something very Swedish, so I had to let Riki do it sooner or later. We needed a break after shopping and
finding a cache so we went to Vetekatten, a well known café in central Stockholm. We decided to leave a
bookcrossing book on the table when we left.

Releasing a book :) |
