All about Gothenburg

May 2011:  After a long winter I took a walk "on the bright side" of Gothenburg as it was my first Sunny and blue-skied day since I arrived in March.  During the following spring I watched flowers bloom gorgeously over the canals and loved every moment of it.

Gustav Adolf Torg

The German Church (also known as the Christina Church) lies in central Gothenburg.

Beginning of Spring

Walking down the Avenue I found:





Enjoying the sun


A trip with a Paddan (the boat) along the canals and out in Göta Älv takes approx 50 minutes.

Kungsportplatsen

Postcards at a shop

Teenage bands filling the streets with music

Swedes love flowers, plants and their gardens

One of the many small shopping streets

Rent a bike (first 30 minutes are free) and see Gothenburg

After a long winter the Swedes were enjoying every bit of sunshine
