Schools back

We have had some lovely days at the end of the holidays - weather was great though very windy.

Kids went back to school yesterday - and we have a heat wave - though due to subside by tomorrow. But we have had time to enjoy friends pool - Oliver loves the water - looking forward to when the sea will be just slightly warmer for him to be able to go in more often.

I have just booked tickets to fly together with Oliver up to Stockholm and London.
Strange to book a ticket - its the first time ever for me - how is it done? Luckily I know someone who works at My planet here in Sydney, and she arranged a ticket for us.
Flying via Hong Kong to Stockholm, dayflights with a nightstop in Hong Kong. Hopefully this will be a great way to fly with Oliver. Arriving Stockholm late in the afternoon.
Returning through London - staying one night and day - hoping to be able to see alot of friends in London - how I dont know yet - but I am sure I will be able to catch up with as many as possible.

A week into Spring Holidays




Well - met up with Andrew in Manly last Sunday - and had a great time. The evening was warm and nice.
On Monday I met up with another crewfriend of mine, Carlos. We met in town and went for a walk and then had a something to eat. Oliver was with me and was wild as anything. Learnt some new tricks - italian ways to show food is good - he still does it.

Jessica came home from Cadet camp on Tuesday evening, she had a great time. Absailing, nightspotting, orientering etc.

The rest of the week just passed really quickly and we didnt really get time to do much. The computer broke down and we have had to leave it to the dealers for repair.
And we went to IKEA for lunch.

And, finally, on Thursday, we had exchange on our house in London. A great relief.

This weekend has been very relaxing, not to have to worry about the house in London too much, the weather has not been too bad, not too hot and not too cold. A little windy yesterday though. Fredrik and Niclas went dingy sailing at the boat club, Fredrik had a good time.
