Here is a photo of the May full moon over Stockholm. This marks the beginning of my 8th month of sabbatical. The Spring semester is nearly over, and summer will be starting soon.
Valborg is a major event in Sweden. It is the 30th of April, the day before the May 1st holiday. Throughout the country, people light bonfires and the choirs sing traditional songs. I went to Skansen to see the bonfire in Stockholm. It was a misty dark evening, but the bonfire lit the path to spring.
A few years ago, in 2012, I got to experience Valborg in Lund, in the south of Sweden. Lund and Uppsala are the University towns where students have big parties in the parks. It was a mess the next morning, but it was soon cleaned up, and fresh as always.
Flying back to Vilnius in a few hours. Spring is here in Northern Europe.
