Winter in Sweden is absolutely beautiful. I am not a person who really likes winter or snow, but I can acknowledge that it can be a beautiful season. As I'm writing this it is snowing outside.... like always. It seems to snow at least a little everyday here. Over the weekend we went to Västervik to visit Foreigner's mom. We took the train... about 2 hours south to the small town on the Baltic Sea. The town is known as a "summer town" with a lot of wealthy swedes having summer homes there. In the winter it is a lot quieter and just incredibly beautiful. When we pulled into town I was shocked at the amount of snow.... the most snow I have ever seen in my life! Everything looked just like a christmas card! So I am going to post a ton of pictures.... hope you enjoy them!
