Stockholm, Sweden 

Got in late afternoon and decided to go on a walk while the rest of the group went out to another town for dinner. Ours was a leisurely walk through Old Town Stockholm. 

Recycling is a big deal in Scandinavia. So much so that Copenhagen is building a new incenerator and the will be receiving garbage from Ireland, United Kingdom and Germany as they don’t have enough!!  I can say last time I was in London, there is certainly enough trash there to keep Copenhagen busy. Copenhagen on the other hand was clean, the canals are clean (people swimming in them) and the air is clean too. So many people on bicycles that the air was fresh. 

Here’s the trash bucket in our room. Notice the different sections for recycling?
