I det bräckta vattnet mellan Italien och Sverige

Jul i exil
Getting ready for christmas... or at least as much as you can while 28 week preggo and with two little monsters to look after, and since we have decided against traveling this christmas we are going to experience a London christmas for the first time ever even if I have been a resident for 14 years...
I even got a Swedish frozen"Julskinka" in IKEA and have already baked two loads of "lussebullar" just missing the ubiquitous Aladdin chocolates box.

Manors, castles and cobbled streets
last weekend Italian Nonno took us to Bath and on the way back past Stonehenge.
We stayed in a very nice place on the way there with a beautiful garden Newbury Manor Hotel the name evokes Jane Austen heroines for me and going to Bath was another evocative journey. I met up with Danish Maya an old friend of mine and met her little son Jonas and they showed me how great Bath is for kids we went to have a coffe and play in the kids theatre The Egg next door to the Theatre Royal. Thinking about it makes me wanna move to Bath, it seems such a civilized place, but as my friend was telling me rents and house prices are very high.
On the way home we stopped by Stonehenge and it is impressive still even as it is presented today and even though you are made to walk on a conveyor belt around the monument listening to a dull text in headphones rather then taking in the atmosphere of the place, anyway with a little wild 2 year old I didn't manage to really take it in fully, should go back there on midsummers eve. We also managed to stop by at Windsor castle, and we had a peek into the hugh park outside of it, and nonno was impressed maybe by the essence of Englishness.

Calabria August 2011
We had some hot days in Calabria in the summer house by the sea! A great place for kids to run around! We left the big one there he will be back intime for the school start.

Kristi himmelsfärd och födelsedag
Hemma några dagar i Svedala, hjälpte till lite hos syrran, som har nytt hus.
Det var så vackra ljusa kvällar och att bo på landet gav ett härligt avbrott från vårt dagliga London förorts liv. Ungarna älskade det, det är underbart att ha ett sånt ställe att besöka och varva ner, komma nära naturen och känna gödsel lukten.
