Here is the view from the palace one weekend when I was out christmas shopping - textbook dreary, but at least there was snow! This was midday, by the way.
Christmas buffet at Waxholm fort, with Julius and Lidija (and little Gabriel), Edwin, Dominic and Jane.
The boat we took to and from dinner, braving the icebergs.
Our second annual lab gingerbread night. I made a Dala horse.
Before christmas I took a trip to the christmas markets in Sigtuna, a small town north of Stockholm with Sweden's oldest main street.
There were lots of wreaths and pine door mats and of course christmas trees for sale.
The main square and the old wooden church
Traditional Swedish christmas foods include fried herring and sugared almonds (sold separately).
2pm sunset!
Mariatorget in the afternoon, just a block from our house.
Stay off the grass!
After our sojourn in Brisbane we had some visitors - Ben and Kym came for a weekend and we went on a brunch cruise of the archipelago.
Cold feet!
Double iceberg!
Here's some pictures of the nicer northern campus of KI.
Winter colours
Last weekend I went cross country skiing with Ebba and Aroha. It was a balmy -5, and you can finally feel the warmth in the sun!
Hey, I know what that thing is for!
Another skiing expedition today, with Aroha, Doug, Heather and Ebba.
