Saturday April 30th


Back in Stockholm we celebrated Carl XVI Gustaf's birthday with some delicious Italian food in a restaurant next to the King's Garden,

not far from the palace


with the daffodils in flower.


The sun was shining, but the wind was cold.


So cold that we didn't stay for the lighting of the traditional bonfire at Skansen, but when the choir had finished "singing in the Spring", we made our way back to the station for the night train home.

Lovely photoes, thanks, Ruth. Confirms my view that Stockholm is my favourite Capital City.

Well she might make you a "deal", but it would be a very cunning one, she's a vixen.
