Bathing Beauties in Sweden

Beaches in Sweden can be a shock to Americans--nude bathers, some of them NOT beauties (for example, the senior citizens Lindsay's husband Mike saw jumping off the pier soon after they moved there in the summer). But now, in the winter, it's too cold to go to the beach. So Lindsay's three girls (Addy 6, Izzy 2, and Baby Alayna 2 1/2 months) had some fun in the bathtub. Notice that Izzy, in the middle, has much more olive skin and darker hair than Addy and Alayna. That's her Grandma Nancy's coloring coming out.
