Sweden ~ Stockholm. Ilbäcken, Uppsala

We arrived in Stockholm in time to have a lovely supper at Birgitta's!

Delicious!


Jonathon made us this yummy dessert! 


So fun to be in your home Birgitta


And in your home, Gunnar & Eva!


Sebastian & Jonathon served us a wonderful breakfast! 


then on to downtown Stockholm!


And here too, there is a taste of Texas.
...although we did not eat here.  


Watching the changing of the guards at the Royal Palace




We toured the castle
Here is the throne room. 


And the Swedish colors used everywhere. 


I love these old heating furnaces. 
so ornate.


the Banquet hall


All very regal.


Then up to Rae's in Ilbäcken


Great to have Matz join us. He is such a good guide. 


We enjoyed some family history with Anders & Gunnel.


Elwood in front of the Anderson's property 
~ his paternal grandmother's side. 


On to Uppsala to Anders & Irene.
Here we are at the botanical gardens where Irene works.
Johan had helped her plant all these tulips.


Her specialities. 


Then we met Anders for a tour of the famous church:
The Uppsala Cathedral


The Domkyrka of Uppsala is the largest cathedral in all of Scandinavia. 


Anders & Elwood in front of the medical school 
from where Anders graduated. 


We always love the walk around Anders & Irene's area.
Just amazing!  and peaceful! 


Wonderful supper in their home that evening. 
So fun to be together again.


And to meet baby Agnes & proud daddy, Simon


Thanks for a wonderful evening!
