Black Lake Castle

Black Lake Castle
Pete and I went for a bike ride to Svartsjö slott (Färingsö) and carried on a bit further as the countryside was so nice and the sky blue (in places). Maybe we should have been less ambitious as the heavens opened copiously halfway upon her home journey....

Lovö round

Lovö round
Another sunny day, another little escapade! We just took the bus for 10 minutes and we were on Lovö, the island where the Royal Palace of Drottingholm is located, No royal visit for us, but a long walk on the northern and wilder part of the island. Beautiful...

Morning Mr Toad

Morning Mr Toad
Sometimes you haven't even had time to eat breakfast and there is a toad already visiting! Basil was intrigued but usually gets bored with batracians as they play dead when frightened - no fun at all!

Blue

Blue
The season is definitely here! Lots and lots of the blue gold in the our woods! We got about 700 g in a short session with just Lili and me picking, as neither Poppy nor Pete had the patience and Otto was somewhere else. Enough for a crumble or two, yum...

Quiet Skansen in July

Quiet Skansen in July
After a few days of unsettled weather we thought a sunny Friday would be an opportunity to make a trip to Skansen, where we have not been for a while. A way to support the open-air museum too, which suffered quite a lot from the closures imposed in spring....

Flowers, berries and a toad

Flowers, berries and a toad
Going for walks in the woods is always full of discoveries: chamomile fields and thistles, to remind us our last year's trip to Scotland, and...a friendly toad that crossed our path. The toad is a sign that we are still getting a good amount of rain from...

Pete and A-K's hike

Pete and A-K's hike
Since Otto was at scout camp and Poppy was on 'kollo' for a week, for the first time in forever Pete and I could take a few days off on our own, with Lili house- and cat-sitting as a back-up. We decided to go on a hike, following a few stages of the Sörmlandsleden,...
