MIDSUMMER

June 23, 2012

Happy Midsummer!

Yesterday was spent celebrating the traditional Swedish Midsummer in Skansen, an open air museum and zoo in Sweden located on the island Djurgården in Stockholm.

At Midsummer, the Swedish summer is a lush green with nature in full bloom, and the nights are scarcely dark at all. In the north, the sun never sets.

Glad Midsommar!
