I sometimes park the bike outside a palace in Gamla stan, before going on a photo promenade in the old town, camera ready. I usually walk Västerlånggatan, the big tourist street. A few smaller alleys and then up to the castle before making my way back to the bike. And here are eight such photos. The guy in the top photo had made it to the castle, but couldn't be bothered to watch the changing of the guards. The woman in the striped suit probably works for the government. I spotted the Fashionista girl at Stortorget, the jury is still out about the furry slippers. Someone has to do it. Palace guard. Texas Longhorn, popular Swedish/American chain, started by a guy from Texas, I think. The last two shots are from Västerlånggatan where everything is a bit more expensive.

It is nice to see people walking on a roadway with no cars. The sleeping guy and the man in blue caught my attention.
Nice captures, a wide variety of street shots. I laughed when I saw the guy sleeping in the first photo.
It is nice to see so many people back out on the streets.
Furry slippers seem to be a thing with some young women.
Good shots!
I do like the palace guard, not often I see someone like him
Summertime! It took me a while to find the Texas Longhorn; I was worrying about that woman pulling the car with what looked like a miniature wooden pallet on it. So do they sell barbecue there? Is that food on the tray the guy is delivering? So much going on in a city.....
It is a popular eatery, Judith. There is one in Haninge, next to the café where I used to hang out a lot a couple of years ago. Yes, that is a waiter from Texas Longhorn on his way to deliver a meal for a customer.
Thank you Stef
