The remainder of the day was spent retracing our path around Gamla Stan. We walked up the narrowest street in Stockholm and also visited the German church. Very easy to traverse and always lots to see. We ended up at a cafe for "Fika" which is the Swedish version of 'any excuse to sit and drink coffee and eat cinnamon bun!' Apparently it's an institution - works for me!
Although I had visions of heading out again in the afternoon, a headache put pay to that but I did recover enough to go out for dinner. Had chosen a couple of restaurants but both were a 'no go' - make sure you book! Eventually found a place where Swedish meatballs were the final meal to be had in Stockholm!
