Visit to Sweden
Saturday the 15th was the day for "Taubespelen", the first activity - This is a music festival at Flatön, Swedish westcoast island. It is the island where the songwriter Evert Taube spent his summers. A fantastic day with family and music.
Here is from left, Michael, Kerstin, Asta, Marie and Monica heading for some drinks during the break.
We took the chance to take a dip in the Sea from Patriks parents boat. Here's Patrik in the boat and Kristins father Tommy in the water.
Sunday evening 16th of August we went to Askim (south of Göteborg) to Kristins parents house.
Lot's of close friends showed up in Askim for a BBQ. We had a lot of catching up to do.

Our friends Maria & Joachim had bought a new house in Hovås. A good reason to have another BBQ.

Here's Monica & Tommy making their welcoming toast.
The following day 19th we had a beautiful day at Fjällbacka and Grebbestad, two of the most fantastic harbour towns along the Swedish west coast.

Heeej.
Jag träffade ju inte Kristin tyvärr men det var iaf kul att se dig, Patrik! Vad härligt det ser ut på era bilder, Sverige visade verkligen sin bästa sida. Precis hemkommen från en veckas segling. Behöver semester efter det, men masade mig upp till jobbet idag... Massa kramar till er båda!
