My dad worked for Electrolux for decades - and every Swede I met seemed to have a place in Stockholm and one in the country.  Clearly this not downtown Stockholm - where in Sweden are you?

Cheers,

Mike

Your yard and pond are beautiful.  My wife thinks so, as well.  Looks like you take very good care of your koi.  Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!!!! :) :) :)/Björn and Liv

Really beautiful pond and fish, the fish are enormous!!  Actually, the pond is very large as well and beautifully planted.  Good work.

every photo is stunning!  Thanks for the pics.

The white koi look great with the snow shots!

And I really got a kick out of the lawn chairs pulled up on their own patch of green lawn on their own island.   :)

So sorry you lost so many of your beautiful koi.  How deep is it now?  Looks really deep.
Loved looking at all your beautiful pics again.

Oh Björn, it breaks my heart that you lost most of your fish.  We had a hard winter over here too.  I love your pictures and videos...your music is amazing.  The beautiful tree...in front of your home with red blooms is very usual.  Your "new" deeper pond is lovely too, one can tell from the color it is much deeper. o(

Just superb!  How about these big boulders?  They are fake!
this shot was early on.
