MIDSOMMAR!

The shortest night of the year!
The tradition wants that folks build a midsommar man named "maypole" alias midsommarstång, the girls wear flowers in their hair and everyone dance around the "maypole", sing, play game, eat "sills" (herring) and have fun all night!

First a nice house, close to the water with a BIG garden

It was raining later this night, so we decide not the give up with the Swedish weather and keep celebrating midsommar all along the week-end, and hopefully, we had a GREAT t° on Sunday, perfect to go and chill' in one of the island in the archipelago. This time, we went to Björnö

Exactly! Hey the french readers, remember in "La bonne paye" this case named "dimanche ensoleillé"?

Ahah, 3 chicks' for 1 guy (he's taking the picture), jalous?
I am so glad to have this kind of place only 45min by bus from home.. and still so much to discover.
