Walking home at dawn and watching the sun go up while listening to Premiata Forneria Marconi's song Appena Un Po' from their brilliant second album Per Un Amico was pure perfection.

green bush cricket

I found this green bush cricket on the wall of the house we stayed in on Barnens Ö. It was about 6 to 7 cm long.

knappkarlsson

My colleague Tomas has this really nice café and restaurant on Barnens Ö called KnappKarlsson. I really recommend it.

Barnens Ö (Childrens Island) is an island in the northern part of Stockholms archipelago with several old summer camps. The first summer camp openend in 1912. It's a cool place which unfortunately is ignored by the politicians eventhough thousands of kids still go there every summer.

laurie anderson - o superman

O Superman was released in 1981 and is one of my absolute favourite songs of all time. It's both hypnotic and beautiful, like a dream. Maybe that's why I like it so much. It sounds and feels like my dreams. Laurie Andersons debut album Big Science, that came the year after, is just as excellent. I still listen too it quite often 26 years later.

'Cause when love is gone, there's always justice
And when justice is gone, there's always force
And when force is gone, there's always Mom

son of rambow

Son of Rambow is an excellent little movie about friendship, curiosity and movie making. It's also a movie about two British kids back in the 80's who love First Blood. I really recommend it! Bonjour l'Angleterre!

grass snake

This is a beautiful Grass snake (snok) who enjoyed the sun together with me down at Holmen. Either it was digesting a big meal or it was a female who was about to lay her eggs.

wiley - wearing my rolex

I think I met these little foxes down at La Isla last week. Wearing My Rolex is the latest song from Wiley. I wonder if this is the beginning of the EuroGrime era?
