    Nice list. Storckholm really has a lot to offer and many of the things you have on the list I have tried. But some are still there and I am not sure I will try them either. Then what counts as unusual things is more a matter of definition. But here are more things to do.
    The City Museum offers a lot and has various themed walks with a guide both in Stockholm and in the neighbouring suburbs. Also various themed walks.
    Take the SL-boat from Nybroplan to Dalenum and maybe get off along the way and walk between a few piers before moving on. Also take this SL-boat/commuter boat from Ropsten to Mor Anna's pier on Lidingö. There are several stops so it can be a full or half day trip, whichever you prefer.
    Take a trip up to Stockholm's New Skybar, Sjöstaden Skybar, 28 floors up and from there have a fantastic view of Stockholm. Yes, the list could be long.

      Yes, I agree, what is different is definitely a matter of definition. Here we simply focused on things that are not traditional museums, but maybe more some kind of activity. What great ideas you contribute! Themed walks can be fun and interesting! Boat trips are also great ideas! Surely the list can be long ...! 🙂
