Love the pictures. Those cafés look so nice and the people look happy. 🙂

And to think that while some are welcoming the warmth I’m so sick of the heat! I know I would appreciate it too, if we had super cold winters like you have, but I seriously can’t wait for cooler weather.
Kenia:

That definitely looks like spring Tibor! In Karlstad where I live, you can already see the grass and the stones by the lakes, and the days are sunny and beautiful, but i don’t think people are having the “spring feeling” yet, although is spring is definitely on it’s way
Tibor:

@Kenia Maybe because it is inland..but we have been talking about spring for weeks. Of course everyone is soo desperate haha..You give me hope though
@Letícia just wait until the summer..gbg will be packed with tourists..the amount of people is usually 3x bigger then usually. It is a whole different atmosphere.
Zuzanna:

The photos are great and it’s good to hear that spring is finally present somewhere in Sweden. 🙂
We had wonderful weekend here, in Poland – 16 degrees and sun, but now it’s again slightly above zero..
Tibor:

@Zuzanna, that is really really cold, but I guess even here farther north is much colder and on the other hand we can never be certain of anything. I have seen snow even in May!!!
