Sunset, at about 15:00 in the afternoon. Gorgeous, though!

Candles are everywhere - even outside. The light and warmth are welcome!

A Christmas goat made of straw - apparently a Swedish tradition

Afternoon sunshine!

Dutchifying the Swedish experience ... and who knew that they don't stick Swedish flags into the meatballs when in Sweden?

Julmus, a very sweet Christmas (and Easter) soft drink

Istappar warning signs are everywhere.

Spotted on the ceiling of our local pizzeria - I suspect they're scarves from football teams from all over Europe.

Stockholm also has nice places to work - like this Espresso House on Vasagatan!

The bakery is filled with gingerbread cookies in all sorts of shapes! This one was a pig.

Tried julmust for the first time. Not bad!

Posted our Christmas cards; I got to use the special mailbox for the one card that had a Swedish address

Taken during the snowstorm last week. That's a lot of snow!

Even the clock looks frosty!

Christmas calendars are everywhere! This is one ICA (the supermarket) sent us, giving us a different coupon for each week leading up to Christmas.

Taken outside Globen - I love how the snow coats the branches, it's so beautiful!

You have to scrape away the ice to read the information
