Thanks, Stockholm!

Moving on from the changing of the guard, we hit up the inside.. where upon walking in the door I lost Emma and had to call her to ask her where she went, she went right, I went left. Never a good combo! We met up, looked at some overpriced giftshop goods and then moved on to look at royally stuffz. It was nice to be inside out of the cold and wind. We went up and down and all around and saw all there was to see before hitting the streets again.. 

ahhh yes, this is where I always put my Christmas tree! 
 
And what do ya know?! We hit a Christmas market! Which was just in the knick of time really.. I was starting to have withdrawals! We slowly but surely made our way through the really terrible snowy weather to Fotografiska.. 
..to check out and warm the frak up in the cafe with a hot beverage and some baked goods. Just what the doctor ordered, considering it was like walking in a freezing hell to get there. We didn't get much of a view, as it was dark and miserable so it didn't really matter that much that we didn't get a seat by the windows.. but it would have been nice. It is what it is. Once we were all refreshed and warm we headed back down to actually check out the exhibition.. currently it is David LaChapelle (until March). It was quite interesting and some rather funny photos and some real wtf photos but really that is what makes it all so complete right?

Upon leaving.. around 4pm, it was dark! The weather was slightly better but it really wouldn't have mattered how it was coz we still would have had to be out in it. Thanks, Stockholm.. for putting on a great show. Today was definitely the day that I was glad I bought a new hat, even though it got very wet, it helped keep me warm and my hair dry and pristine! Bahahahaha.

We headed off towards the big Christmas tree, which you can slightly see in the bottom left hand pic above. It was a little bit of a walk, but not to bad and once we got there we all posed with the tree.. or well, Emma and I wanted to pose with the tree as you can see here...

but as you can see here, Pinko being the porn freak that she is wanted to pose with the striptease van. I think that girl needs to get to PA quick-smart! Don't you!? Also note.. her jacket is rather wet, it was like a damn sponge with that wet ickly snow we had!

After the tree we made our way back to the hotel, quite the early night compared to the other nights but goodness was to come tomorrow and that is what we were all holding on to! A good nights sleep for a day at Skansen! Epicness!
