As painfully cold winters get in Uppsala, summer brings out the best. The white, grey and frosty view changes to something most colourful and vibrant. This summer was filled with visitors- friends travelling Europe who had stopped over for a few days, my brother from Goteborg who was taking a break from the windy weather and others.
Day 2 of him coming here was a day with sun romancing the clouds. A perfect day to show him the real Uppsala summer, as the last time he was here was during the wicked wicked Valborg (blogged about). The same venue seems that much more inviting now. The landmark was the Botanical garden. Here we go-

Sugar beet. Unfortunately, the tropical greenhouse was closed. Would have been interesting for all those insectovorous plants. Also, a reminder of my native climate.

The entrance of the Evolution museum. We were 20 minutes past its closing time, then. :(
A very beautiful house.
Tangerines!
