We were really happy to welcome our first guests at the new house: Stefan, Hester, and Leonie came to visit from the Nederlands for the first part of Sportlov (February break). We had some snow adventures close to home, and went into the city to visit Skansen outdoor museum park. The animals were a hit, as were the kick sleds and heritage buildings (centuries-old outhouses!). We ran out of time to see all the cool things before the park closed, but perhaps there is another visit in the future. 🙂 Graham and I worked one day while they were here, and they went to see Junibacken, the Astrid Lindgren/Pippi Longstocking children’s museum.
