Stairway to Heaven

Stairway to Heaven
July 2007

I was inspired by my friend, Grant's photo blog, Indie. Lens, and decided to show off my own Stairway to Heaven photo. I took this in Sweden at this awesome waterfall we visited. My friend, Eric, is the one coming down the seemingly never-ending stairs here. I had actually forgotten about this picture until today...but I really like it! Great angle, if I do say so myself. :)

I'm not a huge Led Zeppelin fan, but I do love this song. I mean who doesn't? I especially like it though because my Dad has always played and sung this song to me since I was little. Ha. Some parents sing "Rock-a-by-Baby"...but not the Stuarts. :)

all that glitters is gold,
and she's buying a
stairway to heaven.."

Stockholm, Sweden

Stockholm
July 2007

This is the first of many pictures I'll be posting over the next few months from my trip to Sweden last summer. I went with a group of students from my church to serve another church in the city of Tranas, Sweden. We spent a week in Tranas doing all sorts of different odd jobs around the church {weeding, babysitting, cooking, cleaning, building score boards, etc.} We were able to spend a day as tourists in Stockholm before we came home.

Stockholm is such a beautiful city. It is surrounded by water and full of intricate architecture, beautifully colored buildings, brick roads, boutiques, and lots of bicycles! I completely fell in love with it. This photo captures the European charm of the entire city. It's my favorite photo from our day there {and possibly the entire trip!}
