Stockholm - Capital of Sweden

We were delayed coming in to Stockholm by the pilot but it looked a lovely day, though only about 16°C. I escorted the "Stockholm Panoramic Tour", which was essentially, just a coach ride round the town, largely familiar to me anyway but I hoped for better panorama photos than last year (partially, as it turned out). However, I suffered badly from my health problem.

Congress Centre. Pity about that office block.

Back at the ship, I saw Dr. Brian, who had been on the "Black Watch" in August & he divined what my problem was, something not spotted by my GP. He fitted me up with a catheter, anti-biotics & paracetamol, which meant that I could carry out my duties for the rest of the cruise with some confidence & the passengers did not know I had a problem.
