Typical Swedish summer

I had sun and beautiful weather in Stockholm, but then it turned. The rest of my stay in Skara was full of grey skies, cold days and rain. 
I only had time to help mowing the lawn once, did a bit of gardening, and managed to find a dry day to install the fish tower:

But the rest of the time was pretty miserable. We went shopping, but not the kind of shopping I enjoy - it was more Mormor's paradise:

Here are the results of the shopping:

The weather was really coming and going. Well, it didn't matter much to us really, we just stayed inside on the rainy days. I did feel sorry for all the young people celebrating their Student (=Graduation though), in the cold and rain. The weather wasn’t even with us for the Swedish National Day, that day it was even too cold to sit outside to have our fika. 

But it didn’t stop us from celebrating with a bit of Smörgåstårta (=sandwich cake) though. Om nom nom!
