The Elliott Erwitt exhibition at Fotografiska is stunning 🤯
This was my introduction to the photographer, who 📷 shot people and dogs in monochrome, from the fifties to the modern day

the kids got a record player recently so i let my son-in-law lead me to a bunch of amazing used record stores in södermalm and i picked up a few LPs to help get their record collection going
oh and one for me (if i can figure out how to get it home)
it's the original fabulous quartet, with keith jarrett, cecil mcbee, and jack dejohnette
Hej då Stockholm, goodbye daughter, son-in-law, grandchildren, until next time.
Our plan to reduce by one bag here did not come to pass, dammit Uniqlo!
Headed to the Värtahamnen ferry terminal, then overnight ferry to Helsinki.
We found Kiasma, the contemporary art museum. Such an amazing and beautiful building.
The exhibition "We Who Remain, Sámi Art in Focus," is fabulous. I was transfixed by these two posters by Arvid Sveen, "Sámi Liberation" and "Future of Sámi."
helsinki looks like ...
... well, the part we're in, anyway.
it's a beautiful city, filled with architectural marvels. (apologies for all the wide-angle distortion.)

I’m on board Finnair flight AY 1079 from HEL to RIX.
Wow, this plane has propellers!

The Air Baltic Experience on a hot day with Too Much Luggage 🧳🧳🧳🧳🧳 and a gate at the edge of known space has me groaning sweat-soaked and on edge but we’re checked in and waiting to board.
we made our tight connection — hooray
the view from my window seat
(what’s that plane doing up there?)
oh dear our bags did not make the tight connection #alas
they’ll be on the next flight, which arrives in a couple hours … so we’ll just cool our heels here at cdg
time for a happy meal? clinical. #GoldenArches
Checked out of our XVIème arr. apartment. We’re down to two carry-on bags and a backpack totaling 90 pounds but relatively speaking we’re traveling light.
We’re on board TGV INOUI 9253 from Paris Gare de Lyon to Turin Porta Susa, speeding through the French countryside under mostly cloudy skies.

Matt Blazei learned the "do you ship" trick on a trip to hong kong where the family was doing clothes, chinese art, etc. it does make the to and fro on airplanes/trains/etc a lot less hassle.
