out and about on another relaxing weekend, strolling around södermalm running errands, making impromptu purchases for myself (sales still going strong), and getting ready for my flight this week to toronto (with a stop over in new york!). oh, i had a huge salad and the best chai latte at lilla caféet på söder. that's it and it was lovely.
stefan and kai, however, got out of the house to skate! i will need to surprise them with skates of their very own so they can just hop onto one of the lakes near us. but really, hellåsgarden is not far and it's one of our favourite spots (take a peek at last weekend here).
lake mälaren, which connects to the baltic sea (pictured here) is frozen over! it's picturesque with city hall and the gamla stan (old town) on one side and södermalm on the other. the lake is a big one so other islands also have the benefit of skating on it (and swimming in it during the summer months). i was surprised to learn, when moving here, that this lake provides most of stockholm's drinking water. isn't that incredible?
