Sunny Weekend

Caroline’s plane landed on time on Friday evening and I was there to meet her… and waiting to see her, I was so much looking forward to seeing her smile and getting that “I need you” kiss. She had an enormous package with her… big surprise… she had the new painting with her, all wrapped in plastic.
At home we unpacked it and I’m proud to say she’s produced another great two piece painting, which is already on the wall in the living room.
We had a great weekend together and spent lots of time talking and catching up with each other after 3 weeks apart. The weather was also good, so on Saturday we went for a long walk around Djurgåden and ended with a “fika” in Rosendals Trädgård (garden).
Another first for Caroline… a Semla, which is a traditional Swedish cake with a cream and marzipan filling.
In the evening we went to cook and eat dinner together with friends Aaron and Ann. They are an American/Swedish couple I know and they have 2 very sweet children. Caro was enjoying this evening and seeing their wonderful little bilingual daughter, who’s mastered speaking English and Swedish at an early age, just like Hannah and Emma did.
Sunday was also a sunny day and we drove over to Drottningholm and walked in the gardens of the royal palace. In the afternoon we had an early dinner with Hannah and Emma, who had been away most of the weekend. As usual, we had our cosy sofa moment at the airport and we were both happy to know its only 2 weeks before we will see each other again.
