Woke up this morning to Marie’s vicious attack dog Nellie. She’s so sweet, she’s coming home with me. Next dog I get… I sure hope it’s a calm smart one like Nellie. Ha
We had a lovely spread of Swedish breakfast
Including…wait for it…
The tube of kaviar! Marie said its a very Swedish thing and she eats it sometimes in Eggs, the boys eat it on bread with butter in the mornings. So it turns out real people do eat it haha
After breakfast the kids all played around the house with Legos and toys and the iPad. It didn’t matter that they didn’t speak the same language, giggling and shrieking is universal across languages hahaThey bounced around on the trampoline and played together in the sandbox.
After lunchtime we took the grand tour of Avesta including a photo op with the giant Dalarnian horse.
After our compulsory photo op, we headed over to this cute little park where they have Bison. The kids thought it was great to run around wherever they wanted. They also had a cute little playground.
They had those red toadstools like you see in cartoons or Fairy tales. I’ve never seen those before!
Everyone of course had to have ice cream from the cafe.
Total Swedish item- they had sets of stilts on the playground for you to play around on. Kegan and I were supposed to take a picture together on stilts… But I couldn’t stay upright for more than 1 second lol it was bad.
After we got home and had naps, it was time to go feed the goats. we collected apples from the yard and some crusty bread and headed down the path.
They also have some show rabbits that you used to jump in competition. Like a horse steeplechase but funnier. Ha
