Well only in a place as fine as the Scandinavian countries are we treated to such a fine view.
Rock on.
Cheers

That focus is on that woman so I can't see the scenery behind her. How is she supposed to run in those boots?

I'll need to report that street surface to the council.
Can't have cracked and broken asphalt like that show up in images on the internet.
That street is in Stockholm, taken in spring 2017.
That yellow taxi/cab has been taken out of traffic since then, it was equipped with a ramp to handle wheelchairs when it was still in business. The last registered odometer value was 549186 kilometres (341248 miles).

How much for an apartment over there Robin? Are the roads wide enough for a full sized American pick-up? I could do with a change of scenery and I have wanted to see the beauty(ies) of Scandinavia for some time.

The apartment prices depend a lot on the location.
Around where I live it is around 220000 to 320000 SEK (divide by 9.5 or 9.8 for USD) for a three room apartment around 75 - 80 square meters (multiply by 10.76 for sq ft).
The subway takes me to the city centre in 15 minutes.
The prices go up towards the city centre, maybe 2 to 3 times as expensive. The "problem" is that the interest rates are low so people think they can afford it and IF the interest rates go up later they will be in deep brown fertilizer material.
Houses go for around 4-4.5 million SEK.
No worries about the pickup, they sell that kind of oversized overweight testosteron laden scrap metal around here too so our streets are wide enough. Delivery trucks get through ....
The US $ has a high value compared to the SEK so American tourists get a lot for their money. Stockholm is best between early May and late September, the winter months are boring, wet and cold.

Why would she need to run? Besides, her skirt is pretty long, I think that would be somewhat of an impedance to her running a wind sprint!!

BTW: my truck isn't some overweight, lifted 4x4, testosterone laden, pavement queen.
It's a sensible, short bed, 2x4, low slung, pavement eating, testosterone fueled vehicle that will go from 0 to wet yourself in about 4 seconds. And while it's not designed to go off road I have been in the corn fields a couple of times. Perhaps I should leave it here where it can have it's steady diet of rice burners.
