Robin
Here are the first pictures from our Easter trip to Skåne in the far south of Sweden. We had a great time. and saw lots of birds. There was a lot of sunshine though it was very windy and not very warm. We also had a snowstorm with snow blowing in almost horizontally. We still had our non-studded winter tyres on the car and I was thankful for that. I know what the weather can be like in April and there is no set date for changing no-studded tyres. Apparently there were a fair number of minor accidents, mostly cars skidding off the roads.
