Small World?
This entry is mainly an excuse to show the above photo taken on a recent trip to Ebeltoft. We seem to have shrunk!
August 13, 2007: 4 go wild in Sweden
Tony is off to Greenland early tomorrow so we decided that we would celebrate both my and Mia’s birthday a little early. We organised a Magical Mystery Tour last weekend. The girls didn’t know where we were going. We headed in the direction of Grenaa on Friday morning on the pretext that I had forgotten something at work and then drove up to the ferry head and got on the ferry to Sweden.
Then it was a rather long drive to our final destination, Vimmerby which is the birth place of Astrid Lindren, writer of the Pippi Longstocking stories among many others. There we stayed in the garden shed which you see in the picture and had unlimited access to Astrid Lindgren World. We got back very late on Sunday night. Very naughty as the girls were starting school again today but it was a short day for them and I think they managed to stay awake long enough to receive their timetables which is mostly what they do on the first day.
