Does That Count as Spring?

We had another day of blue skies and sunshine!  My friend asks... "Three sunny days in a row in Stockholm! Does that count as spring? "

Several of my friends here are quite accomplished photographers so with all of us enjoying and posting sunshine pictures all day, I have several great ones to share!

I was able to enjoy the sunshine while out and about, running around all day long.  I started out by taking Coco for a long, sunny walk to my friend, Monica's, flat.  Monica has very, very kindly offered to watch Coco for us next week while we are vacationing in Portugal.  However, we wanted to make sure that Coco would behave well with Monica's two dogs, Max and Izzy!  So, a play date was scheduled.  Coco managed the tiny elevator up to Monica's 6th floor (which is really the 7th floor for all of us Americans) with only a little bit of nervousness.  She then immediately made herself at home and made friends with Monica's little cuties!  It was a match made in Heaven!

While the dogs played, Monica and I enjoyed the gorgeous view from her deck and enjoyed a beautiful homemade apple cream tart!  Monica is a very good friend to have, obviously!

After our beautiful morning, I ran Coco back home before joining more friends at a wonderful little Italian restaurant for a birthday lunch for Lori.

As soon as the bill was paid, I ran off again because I had agreed to meet several other friends for an afternoon of ice skating.  We hit the big rink, enjoyed the gorgeous weather and again, had a wonderful time!

After an hour and a half skating, I ran off again.  This time to get home in time for my Swedish lesson!  Whew! Busy day but all fun!  I am now at home, waiting for a package to be delivered.  They said that delivery hours are between 5 and 10 p.m.??
