Now we have real winter in Stockholm. Finally, I say! I know not everyone agrees with me, but I like it when there is a lot of snow and real winter.

Unfortunately, we have so far missed the neighbourhood's "living Christmas calendar", but if you're not familiar with the concept, we can tell you how it works.
