I do remember from a long ago visit to the UK that even in southeast England it stayed light until 10 or 10:30 in June. Iceland would be amazing! I would LOVE to celebrate the summer solstice in Ireland! In my head, I have these very romantic notions. 😁 Edited June 22, 2023 by Faith-manor Typo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finland is technically not Scandinavia, rather it's one of the Nordic countries. I think that many would argue that because there are a ton of Swedes there and it was at one time under Swedish rule, that it should be part of Scandinavia, I've been told that it isn't. I've been to Finland, and I don't remember being attacked by mosquitoes in the sauna. That's a great place to spend the summer solstice! 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
