Today is Midsummer's Eve in Sweden marking the official start of summer vacations for many in the countryside or along the coast and a highly anticipated weekend filled with an abundance of traditions under the midnight sun.
Gather family and friends, dress the tables with crisp linen and fragrant flowers, serve fresh strawberries and whipped cream and raise a glass to the summer solstice.
Glad midsommar!
