Re: Where's the last place you've holidayed?

I'm just back from Sweden - Uppsala and Stockholm. I'll post some pics shortly, whenever Photobucket finishes its Routine Maintenance

Ah - here goes
Stockholm is the most beautiful capital city. I think it's built on 13 islands, so there is water everywhere. There are also lots of islands, many of which are inhabited, forming an archipelago out towards the Baltic. Ferries run to those islands and there are a lot of tourist boats offering trips too




The Gamla Stan, or Old City, was built on one island. Much of it remains as it was in the 14/15 century





Hope that's not a pic overload

...and here's the remainder of my post - I hadn't realised we are restricted to 4 images max. I'll have to remember for the future



And this is me - back and front!

Tomorrow!?
I hadn't realised it was so soon
Have a lovely time
Coincidentally when we did our guided tour round Stockholm's Gamla Stan on Monday we were in the company of a retired couple from Texas. They both agreed that the 25C full sun of Sweden was "beautifully mild"

New York was the last one. Didn't enjoy it as much as the year before. Shouldn't have gone two years running. I was also very, very homesick....... I put that down to my age

Stunning pics Sue, North Devon is more rugged than South Devon isn't it ..... extremely scenic though.

Do you remember many years ago when there were floods in Lynmouth and many lives were lost? It must have been horrifying to see torrents of water rushing through the little town....
