"Sommar" is Summer in Swedish!

Days are hot - a heat wave is hitting Sweden for the moment and temperatures soar to above 30 C! Quite unusual for this northern country. Needless to say, the beaches on the island are now over crowded! However, a stony beach near my house ( from where I have been plunging into the sea ever since I was a child) does not attract the day tourists and are often void of all the fuzz and buzz of the white, silky white-sand beaches ( of which the island is famous !) not far from here.
So there is where we spend the hot days of summer bobbing and frolicking around in the waves. The stones are soft and warm and I found a pretty one and brought home.
One one side I texted with my permanent marker: " Oh, please, turn me over.."
On the other side: "Phjew, that was nice!" :-)
This photo was taken by my friend and neighbour Anita Strömberg with her mobile camera.

I think her picture has it all..
