Efter en tävling på Svenska Spels hemsida, fick jag ett otroligt samtal från Rasmus på Svenska Spel! Jag har vunnit biljetter för två personer till kvartsfinalerna i Hockey-VM (Globen).

Så nu är både hotell och flyg bokat.

Väntar med spänning hur det skall gå fram tills dess!

Idag var vi fyra på Malmö Arena och tittade på Disney on ice. Som vanligt en helt underbar show, med sprakande eldar, ljus och fräcka kläder! Dessutom så var väl alla princessor söta! Sötats var nog ändå Tingeling!!

Denna  dag började med tidig uppgång, frukost och övriga förberedelser inför kommande långfärd.

Idag var det bestämt att vi skulle till Liseberg i Göteborg.

Klockan var drygt 09:30 när vi kom iväg (Tina, Ellie, Elvira, Evelina och jag.

Resan dit gick utmärkt, med lagom varmt väder.

Väl framme fick vi alla våra åkband och sedan begav vi oss in i parken. Vi började med att äta en stadig lunch på Järnvägsrestaurangen, därefter blev det åka av, varvat med chips, glass och lyckohjul.

Lotta Engberg uppträdde på Lisebergs scenen, men det var överfullt med folk där, så vi fortsatte åkandet.

Lite kulturinslag infogades i dagen, då vi gick en runda i Evert Taube muséet.

När klockan var 22:00 begav vi oss av mot utgången och bilen. Vi packade in oss i bilen och startade hemfärden 22:15. Barnen trötta efter allt åkande idag.

So, the day came when we had to say goodbye! We got up at 04:00 (4 am), packed the car with the two suitcases and drove across the Oeresunds bridge (Öresundsbron) to Kastrup airport in Copenhagen. After having some trouble getting the boardingcard, we checked in one of the suitcases.

Last goodbye (for this year) was done at the security checkpoint. Wishing a safe trip home, and that we all will see eachother again soon.

This day was a day filled with history of Malmoe (Malmö). We spend the whole day at Malmoehouse Castle (Malmöhus), and we even went to the Technical museum and the Maritime museum.

We got to learn about the history of Scania (Skåne) from 8000 BC until today.

Afterwards we were exhausted!

We started this day by going shopping. Souvenirs and gifts was the goal.

Coming home from the shopping tour, the kids had gone to the beach ”Sibbarp”, so we joined them there.

In the evening we visited Emelie, David and Johanna in their apartement. We had a nice dinner.

Later this night, Heather, Tina & I played some Yatzy and had some drinks. Mentally we were all preparing for friday!

Making plans for next year……….

This beautiful day was perfect for a visit at the Foteviken viking village in Höllviken. Tina, Ellie, Elvira, Heather and I walked around in the viking village and looked at the vikings that actually live there during the summer. We saw the bakery, the black smiths house and a whole lot of other houses. At the market there were tents with vikings selling their homecraft, like reindeerskin, clothes and tools.

After the viking village visit, we went for a quick stop at the beach, then we visited Tina’s sister Nina & Per. First we had som good lunch and after a game of ”kubb” (and some beer) we had a  nice dinner. We stayed there the whole night.

Early morning and the sun was already shining. After a nice breakfast we walked over to the train that would take us to Denmark across the Oeresunds bridge (Öresundsbron).  We got of the train in the middle of Copenhagen and walked all the way to the queens castle (Amalienborg) to see the changing of the guards. Sadly the queen was at her summerplace in Jylland, but the crownprins Fredrik drove by while waiting for the changing of the guards.

Now time for lunch and we had the traditional danish red sausages (Røde pølser) at the ”LARSEN’S PøLSER”

After watching the guards, we walked along the harbour (Langelinien) too se the little mermaid.

The sun was shining and it was pretty hot. We now went to see the church right next to the castle of Amalienborg.

Ice-cream is very good in Denmark, so we had to get the ”Big Viking”. Heather almost ate the whole thing.

The train back to Sweden was nice, but the walk from the station to the Larsen residens was a PAIN!

Resting in the garden having some spaghetti complaining about our legs beeing sore, we alla agreed of beeing satisfied with the day.

Today we walked in the old city of Malmö. First we saw the ”Stortorget” (Big square), with the city hall, the residens (the former governors building), the statue of the king Gustav X. We also walked along the Malmoe walking street and saw ”Lilla Torg” (The little square), where we will be going to have a drink one night, and we saw the church of St: Peter (Petrikyrkan). Sadly it was closed for renovations.

After that, we took the ”Rundan” (Canalboat) around the canal in Malmoe which was a guided tour on the boat ”Paddan” (The Toad).

Then we went to see the ”Turning Torso” building.

Saturday after midsommers night is the day for the carnival down by the beach.

Nina & Per, and their youngest daughter Elin came from Höllviken. We had dinner, and then we went to the carnival.

The kids went on the rides and we tried the lotteries without success.
