It is the time of the summer to plan our summer holiday, what to do and where to go? We prefer to spend our time in Scandinavia, our last plan was to visit east Finland, but on our way back from a few days at the summerhouse in Kokkola we changed our plans and are going to take the ship over to Stockholm, drive to Vimmerby, a stop for the kids, drive to Köpenhamn (Copenhagen), after a few nights there, up along the coast to Göteborg( Gothenburg), and from there up again to Stockholm, a stop over there and then back to Finland, Helsinki, and a drive back to Vasa. If anyone have suggestion what to visit along our journey, all suggestions are welcome, or if you even have a better routing , a ´must see´ area of southern Sweden, that is so beautiful that we just cant miss it, let me know:) It is a while since I have been in southern sweden, or along the west coast.

On friday we visited our neighbors, a late 40th birthday, had a lovely evening sitting outside drinking a few glasses of wine and talking, eating snacks:)

On saturday we packed our bags and drove to Kokkola, first time this summer, it was a bit cool , but that didnt stop me from dozing off in the sun, it is just so relaxing being in that summerhouse atmosphere, nothing has to be done, one can just be lazy,and the sauna in the evening is just something special, didnt go swimming though..I save that for midsummer:)

The girls loved it and ran around barefoot the whole day into the late evening. I think it is all the fresh air that has made me so tired today.

Tomorrow a new week, take care and lets hope the clouds stays away!
