SWEDEN 2.
I hope you all had a happy Easter. I didn't actually go to Sweden this year! The Swedes came to us. But I wanted to post a few pictures as a souvenir of our stay there a year ago, during the arrival of Spring ( A time, when I wasn't a member of TE yet. )
Former capital of Sweden, Uppsala is still the religious capital and has the oldest and best known university of Scandinavia.
The massive silhouette of the castle on top of a hill , is recognisable from afar. It was built by the most famous king of Sweden, Gustav Vasa ( 1496-1560 ).
On the 30th April, the students organise celebrations for the " Valpurgis ", the arrival of Spring, and it's a very interesting , typical time to be in the city.
I am adding a few WS, to show a bit more about the atmosphere during those special days at Uppsala.
