Eh…

Today we lett Amsterdam for Eh, where my grandmother’s summer house is located. Just at the end of a dirt road next to the lake. It is very quiet here and we are usually able to sleep a lot. This time was no exception 🙂



Between sleeping we ate good home cooked food. And read. Both Chie and I have started on Anne Frank’s diary that we bought in Amsterdam. Chie also spent some time playing on her Nintendo DS.



It was a bit cold so most of the time I had a jacket on while sleeping or reading outside. Chie spent a lot of time inside because it was too cold outside 🙂

When we did not eat, sleep, or rest we spent time talking with grandmother and John, and going through pictures of events since we met them the last time, 2 years ago.



It was great to see grandma and John again. And as always we had a fun time and could relax a lot.

Another morning that we could spend relaxing in the… Well, sun. At least whenever the sun decided to come out from behind the clouds.


Swedish sun bathing

Though that was not too often the morning was pleasant. And relaxing. We spent it reading and talking.

We also had time for lunch before we packed the car and left. For this time.

Eh is a really great place. No people. Big lake. Great grandmother and John 🙂 And nothing to do but relaxing.

Woke up 5:30 am. Probably caused by the jet lag. Or a full blather? Still managed to sleep again after reading for a while.


Summer house

The weather was surprisingly good today. We spent most of the day just alying in the sun, reading. And talking to grandmother and John. And eating.

In the afternoon we had a walk along the dirt road. Stopped to talk with some of the very few neighbors. Watching horses. Watching lambs. And some crazy Germans fishing.

In the evening we had dinner again. The jet lag kicked in around 9:30 pm and we went to bed.

Waking up at a hotel at Arlanda airport was a new experience. And it made us hungry.

After breakfast we got our rental car and speed away towards my grandmother’s summer house in Eh outside Kilafors. It took us 3 hours including a stop in Gävle to buy some groceries at ICA Maxi and some wine at Systembolaget.

The most amazing thing at Chie discovered at ICA Maxi. A wall full of scanners for customers to pick up and do self scanning of their groceries. So that paying at the cashier will be quicker and easier.

When we arrived at my grandmother’s summer house my father and his wife Eva and John was there as well. Big welcome committee.

We talked and talked. And then we had dinner before my father and Eva went home to Gävle.

Then we talked some more before Chie and I dropped dead in the bed.
