Despite living in Sweden, i have never explored Stockholm before. So when i found out that Europride was here this year, it seemed to be a good reason to go off and explore. I booked a hotel by mistake (bloody confusing websites!!) but it was a great find just outside of the centre.
This trip wasn't centred around Europride, more just seeing what happened. The weather has been wonderful the last couple of weeks, that was until two hours before the parade started and the heavens opened. One thing for sure, it did not dampen the spirit of the parade.
I'm not one for crowds and hustle 'n bustle, and was pleasantly surprised how chilled the parade and atmosphere was. Saw some fantastic outfits in the two hours that i saw of the parade, but there were others that i missed. I think there were 149 groups represented there. Despite the rain, it was fab ![]()
Official pics from the day can be found here
As for me... well it's time to focus on what really matters to me, away from here and mIRC. Reality needs to be dealt with and i need to start living my life for me.
See ya!
