Gotland 2016

We were on Gotland for a summer holiday in July 2016. Great weather and lots of visits to the farm to see the cows and collect milk and visits to the beaches around the island.

Returning from our holiday in Australia

So after a long holiday in Australia, a flight home to Sweden. Our last flight of the trip was with a flight out of Sydney on the 17th of Jan. 2015. Actually not a flight with Qantas airways but with Emirates, but I dont have a picture of that plane!

Moments from our trip to Australia

 Here are some moments from our holiday in Australia. Our first stop was Sydney where we stayed for a few days to see the city. The bridge, the Sydney Opera House and the big open harbour were high on our list of sights to see.

Then to Brisbane to stay with family where we made a visit to a museam with a "spot room" where you could stick spots on everything in the room! 

and a rainforest, one of several we visited during our trip.

2014 Rönninge garden produce

So now we are almost at the end of our first year and getting to know the garden at Lilldahlsvägen 22 in Rönninge. The apple trees are quite productive and the late variety produced some nice tasting apples which seem like they might keep well. Of the small selection of vegetables we tested in this first year, the potatoes, zucchini  and carrot did the best, even if the quantity wasn't so much.
