There's a talking and playing "Christmas tree" at Stockholm Central Station. We've shown what it looks like so now it's about time to listen as well.

the pharmacists

Ever since 1970, Apoteket is a state-run pharmaceuticals retail monopoly. Qualified pharmacists offer good advice as well as dispensing the medication. These are real pro's! In my opinion, Apoteket is an example of a well functioning monopoly.

arrival from saltsjöbaden

Slussen is a noisy hub where commuters hop on or off buses, subway trains or the Saltsjöbanan railway. Let's enjoy the sound of an arriving train from Saltsjöbaden.

the sound of kebab

No, we're not at the dentist. This is the sound of Döner Kebab meat being professionally sliced while rotated.

asparagus at hötorget

"...söta fina jordgubbar... varsågod chefen..."





Now let's stop by the fruit and vegetables market at Hötorget ("the Haymarket"). Ready to become bombarded by business offers? OK, here we go, just listen.

the sound of fountain (2)

...previously on waves

Out of these nozzles can come either a small gust of water, barely viewable during daytime.


Or a mighty pillar of water (yes, even during wintertime)

But like this is most enjoyable. High enough to be seen and yet not splashy enough to make you all wet while looking at them. All the different noises come from the opening and closing of the lids and the splashing water.

bus trip to jarlaplan

It's about time we try riding a bus. At the moment of writing the Stockholm city buses are in fact grounded (is that the term?) due to a strike but never mind. Here now a clip from a recent trip to Jarlaplan. Do you recognize the noise?
