... or not really sunset

Midsummer day ... wondering where the summer had gone ...

Fried egg on ryebread, coffee, veggie juice.

A good start on the longest day of the year.

 

Happy Midsummer´s Eve to You all!

Taken near Tønsberg, Norway on midsummer eve 1999. One of the many bonfires lit around the Fjords on that day.

The Finnish tradition of getting totally muddled and burning things outside.

This picture is taken about half an hour before midnight.

Midsummers Night Dream

a noite mais curta do ano / o dia mais longo do ano.

Juhannus (Midsummer) is the time for magic. Traditional belief in Finland is that if you pick seven different flowers on Midsummer's Eve and put them under you pillow, you'll see your future husband (no wifes - sorry straight boys and gay women!) in a dream. This is the bouquet I "picked". Now digital photos are a bit hard to put under one's pillow but I'm not so much into marriage anyway...

Midsummer Mardi Gras

The view from Pin Oak South on a nice midsummer day.

As reported by CNN, midsummer in Zinkgruvan is all about getting drunk.

The worst I can remember. Being the longest and brightest day of the year, Midsummers Eve, Mother Nature shown her worst sides; cloudy, chilly, windy, thunderstorms and cloudbursts! We even got a hailstorm!

 

We went to see our first born daughter and her boyfriend in the city of Lund today.

On the highway, where the limit is 110km/h (68,5 mph), we could drive in 70 km/h (43.5 mph) only, due to heavy cloudbursts and thunderstorms.

 

Today, the sun just went down here ( @ 22.01 - 10.01 PM) - tomorrow we're heading against shorther, darker days again - kinda sad! When will the true summer arrive here?

Midsummers Night Dream

Old tradition to be followed - midsummer celebration in Estonia on the shortest night of the year - 23rd of June when sun does not set: friends around the fire

I passed by the strawberry stand on my way to the ATM and the sign said SEK 40 per box.

 

Got the cash and went back. By then (3 mins later) the price had dropped by 25% to SEK 30 a box. I think the girls working there wanted to close early.

A bit of Shakespeare under the Westway. An immersive Midsummer Night's Dream in the little known Blossom Dale Gardens. With music, slushies and candy floss. Great fun
