National day

Not the best weather today (this is an old picture) but the flag is up and our national day will be celebrated. wpid-img_20150524_131432.jpg

Stockholm city started a new tradition in 1991 when all new Swedish citizens who live in Stockholm and became citizens the year before will be personally invited to a citizenship ceremony in the city hall. Approximately 1200 people attend every year and our new citizens each receive a personal memory leaflet from the ceremony.

Enjoying my morning in my corner trying to get my head together again (lol) after a very late night.. But, we had a great time with lots of laughter and chatting, good food and wine and great weather. We could sit outside the whole time which was amazing since it has been so cold all spring. But yesterday it felt like summer!
