ur-style INTERNATIONAL: Stockholm 2nd day …sightseeing and swedish savoir vivre ; )

Hej,
so here are some impressions from my sightseeing tour through Stockholm…



The Royal Palace

Riksdagshuset

The National Museum

After my sightseeing trip I wanted to ge myself some „refreshment“ ; ) …

…here in Klarabergsgatan at Kaffe Repet…

you get the best „kaffebröd“ (try „kanelbullar“…the famous swedish cinnamon rolls!!!) in Stockholm…
but there is more than cinnamon rolls…
look at that…

Having regained old strength after my little refreshment (and propably having gotten some more own „cinnamon rolls“ ; )) I went for a walk around the old city of Stockholm „Gamla Stan“…

…I found this kewl shop „Nautiska Magasinet“ at Slussplan for nautical clothing and kewl home accessory in nautical style…

they also have a online sho check this out ; )

The sunset at the Evert-Taubes-Terass (click for 360 view) at Riddarsholmen was absolutely beautiful…

So I went back to the hotel for „middag“ thats how they call dinner here in Sweden, but I saw someting MUCH better…
Monks Porter House, which is the restaurant belonging to an old Porter (Stout Beer) brewery …


and they serve good old swedish plain fare (like game meatballs on mashed potatoes with red currant jelly)

and of course they serve it along with swedish beer (try the „Carl Philipp“-Beer!). Bur not enough they serve beers from all around the world … also from Augsburg (my bavarian heart made a big jump) !

After this marvelous „middag“ (and the swedish beer) I slept like a swedish princess ; ) at my hotel (which like I told you in my last article has a perfect view on the royal palace)…

Swedish flag at the Royal Palace
…and I will need all my powers for tomorrows SHOPPPPING TOUR!!!!
God natt and kram!

ur-style INTERNATIONAL: Stockholm 1st day … all on and off waity and on and off royal…or not

Hi everybody!

Due to the fact that I am still waiting for my plane to Stockholm, I wanted to show you something I found at a shop for Paperback Books (Pocket Shop) at Berlin Tegel.
This beautiful (and absolutely swedish ; )) notebook …
(„Anteckningsbok“ – „Rendez vous“)

….was designed by Carl Johan De Geer, surely one of the most polarizing artists in Sweden.

But from „progressive“ to „conservative“ … and back …

… and everything mixed up …

„Välkommen“ from King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia

…thinking of the Royals and waiting for my boys to collect me from Stockholm airport…

…luckily I got one of the new nail polishes from butter LONDON „No more waity, Katie“ (limited edition…there are only 200 available in Germany…yeah ; ))…just suitable in my more or less „still waity“-situation. ; ) For those who don`t know …this is the laquer, which was created by Nonie Creme only for the upcoming wedding from Prince William and Kate Middleton.

…now I am FINALLY arrived in Stockholm City having a marvellous view at the Royal Palace.
But more of sightsseingand shopping tomorow…

Hej då och god natt!
