It has been snowing all day. The Swedes are all like, "damn, that's a lot of snow." I'm just awed by how beautiful it is- as I don't have to drive in it or anything, I'm just enjoying it. Everyone says this is the most "traditional" Swedish winter they've had in several years, and although I can't attest to that, I can say that it looks exactly like that stereotypical image you have in your head when I say "Winter in Sweden."
My only concern is that it might impede me getting out of here on Thursday if this keeps up. On the other hand, this IS northern Sweden and these folks know how to handle winter weather. I'm really not that worried.
