City walk 3

In the church on Gamla Stan was this statue of St. George and the Dragon. My kids love this story. It was interesting finding this statue considering St. George is an English saint. When we were in London it happened to be St. George's day.

Inside this store they not only had Very Important Clothes, but they also had a good selection of taxidermied animals. The stuffed kitten in the window was a nice touch. You can see a bear's head on top of a rack in the photo.

Inside one of the churches in Gamla Stan we found this sphere of lit candles.




I love the pointed helmets. The guns did not seem like they were just for show. These guards were friendlier than the British royal guards.
