No graffiti, no litter! Wowsa! There are canal boats for tourists, but no top so if it rains π€·♀️
Electric cars & electric trolley buses! The city is now building underground trains … quite an undertaking!
The Posidon statue was controversial when it was built … you be the judge! Ooo la la … bit seriously, this city has plenty of parks and public squares!
Hockey is a mainstay with a city arena. This city, Gothenberg, has a Maritime climate which means, in this part of Sweden, the canals don’t freeze. It’ll get down to Zero Celsius and rain for the winter months. It’s dark by 3 in the afternoon … very little sunshine throughout the winter. (Depressing, said our guide.)
Northern Sweden already has snow and -10C
It was fusty-musty in there. π

A shop Dawn & Randy would like!
See Dawn! Super-cute!!!
I loved how these buildings just “hang”an addition of a patio on the side! Voila! π
The harbor looks like a nice area for recreational boating. We’ve seen a few small sailboats and a couple yachts. It’s rocky island bits here and there!
It’s time for dinner and entertainment! Ta ta.
This lovely old church was built in 1914 had a great view of the area. There’s a city fort wall frim the 13th Century still visible in several areas!

Our tour bus dropped us off at the ancient area, Haga, a cobblestone city and had lunch at a sweet restaurant. Outdoor seating is adundant during tourist season. The clothing shops offered boxy-looking heavy woolens for coming winter. But today was summer at 69F. π
