    Bob and I just returned from two wonderful weeks in Sweden and two in Scotland.  Sweden is my favorite place in the whole world, and there’s no such thing as too many trips to Sweden.  This was number 14 for me!  Scotland was a first for both of us.  Of course I took lots of pictures, so let me begin by sharing my love of Sweden with you!

    We started our trip in the third largest city in Sweden, Malmö.

    The city center was beautiful, with lots of these towers of flowers!

    Thanks to some tips from Maia at SemiSwede we found our way to the park….

    …along the canal….

    …and to some beautiful gardens.

    I loved this windmill…

    …and this sculpture was quite intriguing!

    This building, called the Twisted Torso, is one of the most famous sites in Malmö.

    I don’t usually go into McDonald’s when I’m traveling abroad, but one day we needed a bathroom, so decided to share a Coke and take advantage of McDonald’s facilities.  Now I want to know why we don’t have pastries like this in our McDonald’s!?!

    Of course I love the quaint streets…

    …and the shopping was fabulous!

    My favorites are the design stores.

    There were plenty to choose from.

    Sweden and strawberries are synonymous in the summer!

    I also love the handcrafts, like the Dala horses.

    Ah, the colors of Sweden!

    It was so great to be back!
