stockholm weekend pics, an evening stroll


a lazy weekend.  stefan arrived from his trip to montreal, canada midsummer eve's day and joined the festivities right from the airport (see midsummer post here).  with jetlag and a rainy saturday, being tucked away at home suited him, kai and i just fine although stefan and kai managed to get out in the evening to kick the soccer ball around.  that's the magic of scandinavian summer nights, with the sun setting after 10pm, they are light and long.  playing soccer at 9pm isn't a big deal.

on sunday we enjoyed another light night... a late dinner at an italian place, da luigi, which serves really, really good food.  i was pleasantly surprised with my pasta dish and would highly recommend it.  afterwards we walked to monteliusvägen for a stroll along its paths up on the soder cliffs.   there's views of riddarfjärden and lake mälaren, city hall and gamla stan too.

kai was in a funny mood, full of energy and giggles.  it was contagious and made for such a beautiful evening.

starting our third summer here, we are still surprised how light it is in the evening, it never really gets dark.  at home, we draw our black out curtains for a good night's sleep.

on our way to dinner, dropping by the trash bins to recycle the pizza box from the night before, but first the boys enjoyed playing pizza box frisbee :)














hope you had a lovely weekend too.
