Gamla stan: the royal palace - Change of the guard - Stockholm - Sweden
The royal palace is locate in the old town of Stockholm. It has been rebuilt in the beggining of the 18th century when the old Tre Kronor castle was destroyed by fire in 1695. The palace is still inhabited but can be partly visited.
The guard change takes place on the outer courtyard. The guard comes by the Norrmalm bridge with their horses for the changing of the guards. Some "small" changes of the guards occurs also without the horses and big ceremony.

Photo of the week
Norway
Lofoten are known for the mountains that go from the sea to the clouds... There is a lot of small lakes with around some red houses. Some of these houses have grass on the roof. Along the lofoten coast (Here, Moskenes islands), there is some bays with a small harbour in each bay (å, Tind, Sorvågen...). These villages are between the sea and the mountains. The rorbus are some fisher houses in the Lofoten islands. They were used only in winter time when the fishermen were coming from the south to fish. Bridges are one of the way to circulate between the islands in the Lofoten. Other possibilities are ferries and underwater tunnel.
