I’m still suffering from the jet lag. It usually takes a few days before everything is back to normal. Check out the following picture gallery where you will see amongst other things:
-Arlanda Airport.
-The countryside.
-Lots of churches.
-The changing of the guard at the King’s Palace in Stockhom.
-Some cheese I bought at a really great farm.
-Some beautiful shots of Gamlastan (the old city) in Stockholm.
-The Linkoping Cathedral inside and out.
What an opportunity. Our little man is shipping out to Hungary (via Germany) this evening for a month long voyage culminating in Istanbul! His handler, Ron, plans all kinds of activities on this trip beginning with a steam bath and massage in a Budapest spa, an evening at the philharmonic, and dinner on the Danube. Perhaps an escape to Lake Balaton and wine country. After traversing Romania and Bulgaria with all their fantastic scenery and culture, he plans to alight in Istanbul for a stout cup of real coffee and later take in the sights. He has always had a weakness for Byzantine art. After that, a cruise along the Black Sea coast and catch the sunrise over the Golden Horn. I should have clear-coated him…

Still Home, but packed and ready to go!
Note his silver glasses. When he gets back he is going to have green lenses fitted in the frames. I had no time this moring.
Before I knew our little man was about to embark on a long trip throughout Eastern Europe I had planned to begin his world travels with local visits. He will visit the court house of every one of New Jersey’s 21 counties and get his picture taken there. I figured court houses usually make pretty landmarks. Once he gets back I will pick up where I left off and visit some more close by. After NJ is done it will be time to move to other states, but that’s planning way too far in the future. Behold: First Picture, Somerset Courthouse, Somerville NJ!
