King Gustavus Adolphus the Great – Gustav II Adolf – died on November 6th, 1632. Traditionally a special pastry with his portrait made of chocolate or marzipan is eaten in Sweden this day every year to remember the king. He founded a lot of Swedish cities – Gothenburg for instance, and also reestablished Uppsala University.
This morning it was some sort of snow / rain coming down making the back yard kind of white. It has been going on all day but it is so warm outside it the snow is gone the minute it lands on the ground.
This week has been one of those weeks but with a few perks. One more today having lunch with my best friend. That was very nice – just what we both needed. Hope we will find time soon again.
– as I see it..
