ok, so it was a beautiful trip over... out of the plane window was mountains and snow...
as we headed towards Sweden, we could see large bodies of water everywhere... all partially frozen due to the cold.
After Stephan picked us up we drove through the country side till we reached the outskirts of Stockholm, where they live, in a suburb.
As we drove in a deer crossed our paths... Stephan slowed down for us to get a look.. and low and behold... there was FOUR of them... wandering around like they owned the place...
I was shocked... I knew deer were native... but even Kangaroos arent that game!!!
Karin says they enter her yard in spring and eat the heads off all the flowers!!!
Karin and Stephan are lovely people, and their kids are gorgeous..
This morning they headed out into minus four degree weather... ÖMG!!!
It was very cute, Victor, their one yr old looked like a little blue marshmallow.
We sat up and had a few drinks last night and a chat about what we want to do whilst here...
Shopping was at the forefront of both mine and my sisters minds... lucky for us... Karin being female.. it was also at the forefront of hers... lmao.
We are going to the largest Ikea today, with large shopping outlets that we are assured to get a bargain!!
Stephan is also going to attempt to get us over to the viking settlement here... although he feels that it may not open till summer, and we will be shit out of luck... : (
I am going into work with Stephan tomorrow, as lucky for me, his boss is a huge art collector!!!
There is art all over his work space, including Matisse, Picasso, and 2 Warhol prints!! HEAVEN!!
The one downside to travelling is that I am finding that I am out of whack every time I wake up in a different time zone... lmao...
Today I am 2 hours early... Loz is having no trouble tho, and is right now quite happily snoring away....
Well...
Thats all for now...
So will talk again soon.
