After that Paul decided to take us on a bit of a de-tour on the way back - we got to see lots of lovely countryside... with cows... and houses... and... yep, decided to take some photos of the alcohol instead after a while, what happend to the alcohol on the saturday is a different story... pictures to come.

Paul was STOKED about being back at Ikea, he couldnt but hide his excitment....

We obviously had to take our belovéd guest to Ikea, how much more swedish can it get;) We had the meatbolls for lunch and bought some nick nacks.

Maree & John´s visit

Maree & John spent 10days with us here in Luleå and we had such a great time with them. We tried to give them the most swedish experience possible and we believe John got all of the things he wanted to do ticked of his list. Here are some photos from Storforsen, it was a nice sunny day and we had a picknick and a stroll around, just lovely!
