Sunny Times  

     As in all Scandinavian countries, the amount of sun varies greatly by the season.
In summertime, the days are satisfyingly long and in winter, incredibly short. I never
got used to the days going gray just after lunch in the winter or the birds starting
to sing at 1AM in the summer.  The weather, while partly related to the sun, varies
more than anybody likes, as there were summers where temperatures never rose
above 60F.
