I loved all these books, but especially the Wallander stories and the descriptions of Sweden and the countryside -- so now it is on my list of places I would love to see. The islands have fascinated me and I really have enjoyed hearing about your adventures. The photographs you have shared are so sweet and so charming -- they are just wonderful to see. I am looking forward to further accounts...The Broadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04976467218216864644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271959060195052715.post-34207805838239120082012-04-02T05:07:51.516-07:002012-04-02T05:07:51.516-07:00What wonderful memories, Inger.
