stockholm weekend pics 8, early winter

these early winter days have been crisp and invigorating.  and bright!  this is the weather i imagined stockholm in the winter to be like.  i will tolerate freezing temperatures (-7 celsius has been the coldest thus far) for brightness and a dusting of snow.  it just may be the best christmas present i received this holiday.

and now, a few pics of sunny stockholm these last several days...
