Changing the guard at the Palace

The crowd was 5/6 deep, cameras held high above the heads, people on tiptoes or standing on pillar bases to get a better view as the marching band and the soldiers marched past; changing the guard at the Palace always attracts the tourists.
Some of the state apartments are open to the public and I paid my bit to go in and have a look, giant chandaliers, beautiful furnishings.. all very regal.
But we are not talking Christopher Robin and Alice here...
Ande King Carl XV1 is on the throne and this is  Kunlinga Slottet. The Royal Palace in Sweden.
Stockholm is beautiful; the weather very changeable; they say four seasons in one day and that is about right.
There is a special evening today when there is so much going on for free.. right up my street.. or along the canal... so to speak.
