I miss magical

Last week, we and our best friends drove around southern Sweden for 5 days. It is the second year in a row that we travel together.

The difference between Stockholm and the countryside is much greater than you might think. As a resident of Stockholm, you are constantly surrounded by water because the city is made up of 14 islands linked by 57 bridges.

Walking along the water on a summer day in Stockholm is hard to beat, but walking along a beach by the sea is something else entirely.

Due to the pandemic, we have not been to Florida since 2019. Walking along the beach at Tylosand as I did last week was fantastic but not magical. The last time it was magical to walk along a beach was in 2019.
