It's been a long weekend and I am very tired, so this is just a little appetizer of the places I saw these days. And in the next posts I will tell a bit more about it.

Listen to little birdie's station

This time of the year (in Southern parts of Sweden it's end of May, beginning of June) is Lilac time (Latin: syringa, Hungarian: orgona, Swedish: syren)

These ones I photographed in the middle of the city, amongst big houses.
