And then we went to Stockholm





I can only just remember our summer holiday now, as weeks, even months, of very hard work has followed and pushed out pleasant memories of warm summer days in lovely Scandinavia, going to art galleries, swimming in a lake, picking blueberries and eating outside in the evening sun.
Britt and Rui were excellent hosts! I thought I'd show off a bit of Beautiful Sweden that I photographed.

Duchess , Storm and Edward






So; long time, very little blogging..
Well, I had decided to blog chronologically, and I couldn't go on without sharing my meeting with Duchess, Storm and Edward, you see. They are birds of prey that we met and interacted with this summer in Aberfoyle. You pay a bit and get to take photo's and cuddle them! So exciting! And some of you will probably already have heard of my fascination with birds of prey after seeing somany Buzzards at the side of the road on my way to work.
So here are the pics of Ane, Pappa and I holding the golden eagle, Duchess(pappa), the american hawk, Storm (me) and the eagle owl, Edward (Ane)
