Shopping in Stockholm

Prepared a hot sandwich and salad for breakfast. We needed lots of energy for our shop-until-we-drop in Stockholm. First was a stop at Bengt & Lotta at Odenplan. Chie wanted to buy a pair of felt slippers for the winter in Tokyo. But Bengt & Lotta had closed for vacation and referred us to Svensk Hemslöjd on Sveavägen and Iris on Kungsgatan 55 instead.

We went in to a few shops on our way to Svens Hemslöjd because it was raining quite heavy for a while. But Svens Hemslöjd did not have the slippers. So we continued to Iris but took a wrong turn on Kungsgatan towards Stureplan. But that was OK, we took the opportunity to have lunch (not so good at Fogli or something like that) and to have a look at the Kosta Boda store, and I bought a shirt at the Shirt Factory in Sture Gallerian.

Then we caught a bus to and got of at Hötorget and walked the last 150 meters or so to Iris. We also checked a nice toy store called Krabat. Anyway, Chie found her felt slippers at Iris and many other things. Our shopping continued along Drottninggatan before we were exhausted and returned home.

At home we had not much time before we used the car to drive down to the small harbor in Stocksund. There we had dinner at the Hamnkrogen. It was a very impulsive decision to go to Hamnkrogen but we were surprised. The food was very good as was the service.

While we had our dinner the strange weather this summer prooved itself again. On one side of the restaurant it was pouring down while on the other side it did not rain at all. But there was a great double rainbow instead.
