This blog is 3 years-old! Already! I would not have imagined it when I started it, but I guess it's just as well, as it demonstrates its original raison-d'etre: a modest endeavour to record days and events as they come along, with no real intention nor...

Midsommar!

Midsommar!
A highpoint in the Swedish calendar: Midsommarafton (literally, the day before midsummer), a day spent eating and drinking outside - when the weather allows it. Today we were lucky, as the sun was shining and made it possible to picnic and run around...

Green day

Green day
Otto still unable to attend nursery today, so we went to Kungsholmen instead, as the weather is warm and sunny. The children's park along the water facing T-Centralen is perfect for Otto's current interests: boat, train and plane spotting... Green shorts...

After several of his little friends from nursery, Otto has now caught a naughty bug which is giving him a runny nose and pink feverish cheeks...So it's home-with-maman for him today, except that the weather is too sunny outside to really stay at home....

Lili, lollies, Pops n' lil' Otto

A palace, wedding dresses and a cat
Lili's school was closed on Wednesday, so we had the opportunity to do something special, together with Grand-mere, whose stay with us was coming to an end. We chose to go to Hallwylska Palatset , a private palace owned by a ( very) (very) (very) rich...

Silk

Silk
Situated in the heart of Södermalm, the K.A Almgren silk weaving mill is still where it once was established, some 170 years ago. The lilac trees found in the courtyard are, apparently, the original plants put there when the first silk mills were inaugurated...

Still wildlife

Still wildlife
Part of Skansen, though few people know it, Biologiska Museet is one of my favourite places to visit in Stockholm. The building itself is impressive, as completely clad in dark wood shingles outside and formed around a double helical staircase inside....
