This year we spent Midsummer's Eve with our friends Anna and Anders in Åkersberga. Very nice! Now we are moving on to new adventures (you will soon know). Wish you a continued nice midsummer weekend!

ShareHerring lunch in beautiful weather
We started with a herring lunch, with eggs and potatoes, in the wire garden in absolutely fantastic weather. The sun was shining and it was as perfect as it could be. And then some herring, nubbe and nice company on it!
Joint midsummer celebration
After the herring lunch, we walked over to the neighbourhood's joint midsummer celebration. Very nice! Here they had erected a midsummer pole and organised both dancing and other activities. Here you could throw darts and hit nails and such ... Peter tried it, of course!
Barbecue evening and overnight stay in the motorhome
In the evening we had a barbecue, and everyone grilled what they had brought with them. For us it was grilled char, very good! And then there was a lot of nice talk of course. When we got tired, it was just to walk up to the motorhome. Sooo fantastically nice to have your own house with you!

Yes, it's handy to have your house with you, whether you're travelling abroad or visiting friends for a party.
Pleasant continuation.

Kerst, that does not sound wrong! It is also nice to feel that you get something for your money!
Ninny, right? The rolling little house comes in handy on many different occasions
🙂
Katarina, Prague sounds wonderful! Of course you miss the Swedish midsummer celebration when you are abroad, but on the other hand it is so much fun to travel!

Ann Solander, so you live in Österåker! Yes, it's nice there, especially when you get down to the water. I actually went to junior high school and high school there, so I've also lived there...
