For me, this too is relaxing. And Stockholm simply is the most beautiful city in the world!

Stockholm (by foot today)
As I had woken up to another chilly, but sunny morning, I decided to explore on foot today. I crossed Västerbron the south side and then walked along the north side of the Mälaren.
