Springtime in Luleå

As luck has it, I was able to score an internship in Luleå, and got to go visit my family at the same time. I brought William along, so he could stay with mormor and morfar while I worked.

Spring and summer are my 2 favorite seasons in northern Sweden. Since we moved to the states, we had only visited Luleå in either the summer or for Christmas. Actually, I don't know when I was last in Luleå in spring, but might be about 10 years ago. This time was exactly as nice as I remember it. Tons of snow. Lots of sun. And plenty warm enough to play outside. I got to go sledding with William and my niece Ella, go "kick-sledding" and have a picnic on the Bay of Bothnia with William and my mom and go cross-country skiing with my dad.

We also had timed it with my little brother's university graduation. Our visit couldn't have been better.
