It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood!

I got a request to share some pictures of our neighborhood so here they are! We live in North Stockholm by the North toll to get in and out of the city so the area is called Norrtull. The nearest subway stop is Odenplan and it's 2 or 3 blocks from our house. Sorry, I don't want to share our exact location, you never know who is reading this! Anyhow, I'll start with a couple more pictures in the building. We have a spiral staircase and a tiny old elevator. As far as I can tell all the buildings in Stockholm have both as well.
We also have, what I consider to be, a pretty great view out our balcony. It's the view of a typical old street in Europe with multicolored buildings. But I thoroughly enjoy it. And it's towards T-Centralen (downtown Stockholm) so now that tourist season has started I can watch the hot air balloons over the city from the balcony! Here's a picture of the view, sans balloons.
Below is the same street view but from the other end of the street looking back towards our apartment.
And finally, here's a typical street in Stockholm. Hope that helps you all get a better image of where we are these days. Let me know if anyone else has any requests for more info!
Love Always,
Matilda
