In the late afternoon..

..I just had to take some photos before I leave of the Spring explosion over the past days in the garden! The abundance of flowers just takes the breath off you. One week ago the ground was covered with snow! 

Same spot. Less than a week ago!

"Take a jumbo..

 

..across the water, I am going to America.." 

The great Supertramp tone is in my head early morning in Gotland as I am packing for summer and 24 degrees in Washington!  Living on an island as far away from the Swedish mainland as you can get and still be in Sweden - the trickiest part is to get to the Arlanda airport! Car, domestic flight, airportbus twice, a Rest and Fly room at the airport terminal..Crossing the Atlantic is a piece of cake in comparison! Thanks god the volcano at Iceland has calmed down a bit! (I hope!)

And here is Supertramp from the sweet 80´s! Oh, sweet memories..
