Oh my it’s been beautiful this week in Stockholm. Suddenly, the trees are leafy and green, flowers are blooming and there are lovely scents of lilac and hyacinth everywhere. It happened all at once. Truly. And it’s gorgeous. Combine that with warm temperatures in the 20s at last (it’s going to be 23 degrees C today – that’s 73 in F), lots of sunshine and outrageously long hours of daylight (sunrise today was at 3.54 and sunset is at 9.36) and you have a little slice of paradise right here in Stockholm.

OK friends, isn’t it time for you to come and visit?
