Good morning, Stockholm!

The flight was fine, the food was tasty, but there were a few arrival hiccups at the Airbnb. Fortunately, they were resolved quickly. 

There was no portable air conditioning unit as listed in the Airbnb description and only one small fan. It was VERY hot. Additionally, the microwave was perched above the refrigerator, and the unit on the right blocked the kitchen window and a possible breeze from entering. Does anyone know what it is? It had a plug so, it's something electric. Maybe a plant grower for seedlings? A cat contraption? 

 

Fortunately, one of the hosts quickly arrived with a replacement AC unit, two additional fans, and kindly moved the microwave to the counter. I did not inquire about the possible plant grower...

 

Later, I got some groceries at the local ICA (.2 mile away), and the COOP (about .5 away). The COOP is more familiar to me as that's very common in other European countries and had the best selection. By evening, the AC had sufficiently cooled the space so that I had a very restful sleep. 

This morning, I enjoyed coffee and a Swedish pastry on the balcony as a lovely breeze floated through the courtyard.

  1. It looks like you have a beautiful spot!! It's well situated so close to the COOP and perfect for people watching from your balcony:)
