Spring in Malmö

Well, it must officially be spring…. outdoor seating has returned to Lilla Torg!  Only in Sweden can you sit outside and not be the least bit chilly. This concept confuses foreigners:  Can you really sit outside in 5C (40F) degree weather and *enjoy* yourself?  The answer is yes. Swedes aren’t crazy — they have the best heaters around and the tall, linked umbrellas keep the heat in like a tent.  And if you’re still cold, there are fleece blankets on every chair just in case.  Food always tastes better with a beer and fresh air.  (Sorry for all the close-ups; I only had the macro lens with me….. below: Pilsner Urquell, daffodils, lingon gräddfil, potato wedges)
