Fourteen scenes from Nynäshamn

The month of May is finally here. If you live in Sweden, this is most likely your favorite time of the year. We call it sköna maj. May the beautiful. The light is back. The days are so much longer. It is warm again after the cold Winter. And most importantly, everything is getting green again. Although this time around, everything feel a bit delayed. Anywho, I took my first bike ride of the year to Nynäshamn, a port city on Södertörn. I visited three beaches. Met two women who asked me if I was going for a swim, I was not! But I sat down and ate my lunch next to them at Nickstabadet. I then continued to Lövholmen and the rocky beach at Knappelskär, before riding back into the city center along the photogenic ring road known as Strandvägen. It was built for the 1912 Olympic Games btw. I made another stop at Fagerviken that has nice views toward the island of Trehörningen. My final visit was the guest harbor, where bikers and ice cream eaters were enjoying the Summer temperatures. The restaurants were packed with people, I took a stroll looking at some of the visiting ships.

May is a wonderful month after winter has passed. But we seem to be having a rainy May so far. Your landscape shots look like they could have been taken here.
