    Sally and I didn’t have much time for shopping while we were in Stockholm, but we did manage a couple of stops, like the NK Department Store, where we found some fun things.

    Our Airstream, Lola, needs dishes, and I thought there were some great things to choose from here!

    I even got new flatware for her.

    And a couple of serving trays.

    But the real reason for this post is Sally’s obsession with the “take a number” thing that is everywhere in Sweden.

    It doesn’t matter if you’re at a department store, bakery or bank, you take a number!

    As she took out her camera to take a picture at the money exchange called Forex, I jokingly said, “You’re going to get us arrested.”  Sure enough, just as she snapped her shot, a very angry clerk shouted, “NO PHOTOS!”

    Sally even “helped herself” to piles of the discarded numbers!

    Personally, I don’t see the fascination with this that Sally does, but she sure had fun.  Number please!
