Actually, the Stockholm region has had epic downpours a few days in a row which led to massive flooding… like ducks paddling across the road in low areas flooding. But since midsommar (summer solstice celebration) is only a few weeks away, the sun is up almost all the time, and when it dips below the horizon it is still twilight. Everything in the garden had a bit of a late start with the cold spring, but now everything is catching up at an amazing pace.
Blueberry flowers mean lots of blueberries come July! Tiny Swedish rÃ¥djur are even smaller than Victoria dear! So many flowers! Close up… bets on whether we get some strawberries for Graham’s birthday? A little tomato plant in front of the strawberries, rhubarb, and (thornless!) blackberry vine
Summer has also facilitated some outdoor visits, including a dinner at our place…
…and a picnic dinner at Lappis beach.
Lovely thai salad starter paired with thai beer! Cheers! Outdoor Korean hotpot on a mini camping element! This picture was taken by hosts Linn and Lai, and here you can see the location on the waterfront (swan territory)
I also got my first vaccine dose (Pfizer, Graham the same) so we will be ready for visiting and groups and travel and maybe (finally!) visiting all the museums in Stockholm.
