    WRUW this Saturday the 5th of October.

    Grand Seiko on a ferry trip to Stockholm, good for hopping time zones.



    Arrived early before sunrise.



    Some walking and scanning Södermalmen befote joining akasnowmaan for breakfast in a nice cafe.



    First stop Fotografiska and Shepard Fairey exhibition.







    Then ferry ride to Djurgården side.



    If there’s a museum for alcohol, you just have to visit it.



    Bootlegging was a topic of one section.



    Wreck museum was saved for next visit.



    Then a walk to city centre for lunch.







    After lunch a couple of pubs in old town.



    Flag is flying, so king seems to be at home.



    Now at hotel for some rest after a nice hang out with an old friend.

    Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    The hands are ruining it for me.
    Funny you say that, though...

    Off to do a checkout dive with a major piece of new equipment that is fundamentally different from what I am used to diving with. The lightweight, rollable/foldable BCD (orange and black thing.)

    That's not a very fun story.
