Haylie poses for me at the Klintehamn bakery. It's a great little place to eat lunch or to "fika", the verb meaning "have coffee and something good". (yellow saffron rolls behind her)I thought I'd add some photos from Christmastime. When they live so far away we sometimes feel like we exist from visit to visit. But phone calls and Skype really help. Imagine if it was 1870, when my Swedish ancestors came to Minnesota.
Gotland has both old and modern windmills. Very scenic.
Wary of the decorative straw Christmas goat getting torched every year by pyromaniacs, Klintehamn went with this steel model.
Christmas Eve, getting ready for our 2nd go around at the Smorgåsbord. Uffda.
Shopping and sightseeing in Visby for the day.
I had to stop by and see how your blog is doing:) You've quickly picked up on how it works!! I love your pictures of Sweden and cute Haylie~especially the one of her in the bakery. Fun!
ReplyDeleteI have Great memories of Visby! I hope to return some day. I think your blog is great and I am interested in the widgets. I speak swedish, but read it a lot better!
