went for a walk around the lakes here with leif. was really nice and sunny, and hot and sticky as well. but i’m not complaining. it was good to get out for a bit. get some fresh air. stop thinking.

went around the city a bit more yesterday.

simon and i met up with my sister and we had a coffee with her at the top of kulturhuset in the sun! beautiful view.

then we wandered over to the city hall and had a look around. once again, beautiful!

we were meant to have lunch in the old city for from shellfish and whatnot, but of course they closed 20 minutes before we got there!!

so we opted for a not so great caesar salad, but we made up for it with some newly made ice cream cones and marvelous ice cream!

then we saw the royal palace, simon once again wasn’t happy with me being a tourist and making him take pictures.. ha!

we went to leif’s to watch the football, yay for USA and England!! and had some yummy rhubarb and raspberry pie

after we took a walk around the lakes here in råsunda, and enjoyed some more of the lovely weather!

so one of the best birthday presents i got this year was a fast and fun filled day in Dallas from my seester. so we got up sort of early this morning and made our way to lake lewisville (after getting lost a bit) and rented three jet skiis. wow, I LOVE IT. its so much fun, way better than a boat, but it makes you sooo tired. i dont think im going out tonight or anything, no energy. plus emmelie leaves tomorrow morning so gots to make the most of the last night no? but yeah i totally recommend going jet skiing, its one of the best things out there to do in the summertime!

crazy emmelie

jorge his first time! think he liked it? haha

so me and dad walked by the canal and bought some groceries. i also got the newest edition of cosmopolitan magazine. loves it. on the way there and back we saw some ducklings, the cutest things ever. also swans, and we stopped to take a little ‘snack’. me and dad both bought a donut and a drink. i had an innocent smoothie of course hehe. 

heres dad and i by the place we sat..

some of the ducklings and swans.. 

hard to explain cause we were speaking swedish of course, but dad told me to take it.. which in swedish is like touch it, and i looked at him like ‘you want me to touch the swan?! that thing will bite my head off’ and then he informed me that he meant for me to take a picture. ha. 

yep. thats what my ‘walk’ turned into. me and dad went into the city centre for a ‘snack’ we passed a japanese restaurant and i havent eaten edamame in SEVEN months. so dad drank a beer, and we both got our own bowl of edamame. yummy in my tummy.

then we decided to go to the st. stevens green park. always walked by it but never in it so why not? turns out its actually very pretty. swans and many many flowers. its so weird that such a calm place exists in the middle of a bustling city!

now im sitting here listening to funhouse, getting ready for the pink concert this weekend while dad makes dinner. taco friday! loves it. miss you emmelie.
