Wonderful Day Out.

Last time I wrote on the blog i had mentioned that a couple of weeks ago I had finally passed my driving test and while it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life it was by far the most stressful.

But although it was so stressful yesterday proved to me that every single kronor and stress was well worth it as myself and my hunny Marie decides to pack up the car and the twins and take a little road trip down to the Swedish coast. 

Everyone has always said that the Swedish coast is a must see for anyone who has come to Sweden or lives there as it is one of the most beautiful places in the whole of Sweden and I must admit they were not half wrong!

We set of pretty damn early as its a good 2 hour drive roughly down to the coast followed by a ferry ride over (that was a experience let me tell you! I have never been driven a car onto a ferry before but it was quite easy I must admit) and then headed on down to a town called Lysekil.

Whilst down there we decided to take the kids to the aquarium down there but I just admit it was quite disappointing, I had expected them to have a lot more fish and sharks and such likes but nope. They did have a fairly decent variety of fish but they had no sharks or at least sharks that we have come to know and love. 
But it was still great to go and see it and the kids had a really great time which was the whole reason we did it in the first place. 
However after about 45 minutes we were done and we had decided that we would spend the rest of the day walking around the town and just taking in the sights. I must say that if I had the money (aka was rich) I would buy a house down there haha. 

So although the aquarium was not as awesome as I would have liked it to be myself and the family had a truly awesome day out checking out the coast. 

It was just a weird feeling being able to just jump in the car and take the family out for the day without having to think about busses and trains for once and although I made some small mistakes on the drive down it was nothing life threatening that would cause a accident and I have learned from them so thumbs up I guess. 

Anyways here is some pictures for you guys to check out of the trip, hope you like them :)

So until next time, I hope everyone else had a awesome weekend and we shall see you next time :)

Day Off!


Well just like the title states above, today i have a day off work since today is the Swedish National Day. Up until now i pretty much didn't even know it existed i'm pretty sure that my fiancée Marie has probably told me about it every year but seeing as i was always off work it was not something that i really paid much attention to.
But now that i'm working YEEEHAAAA for Swedish National Day.

So instead of having to get up at 5am this morning and getting ready for work, i got to wake up when i wanted to and now get to spend the day with the family, well minus our oldest daughter Mikaela, who will be spending the day in town since she has some majorettes thing to do today, but she will be home later on this afternoon.

I have to say i think today will  be a nice day, for some reason yesterday i was in a huge amount of pain in both my hands and legs and for some reason no matter what i tried (even had like 6 cups of black coffee) i could not wake up at all, so yesterday i pretty much spent the whole day walking around the hospital yawning my head off every 30 seconds lol.

I have no idea what we shall do today, probably just sit around and try and take it easy since our lovely Swedish sun has decided to abandon us these last few days and give us nothing but rain, damn you sun!! but even though we probably won't get up to all that much it's nice to have a free day off work, i know your probably thinking "Dude, you have had like 7 years off work" and your right, i would probably rather be working but my body is enjoying the fact it won't have to carry anything or pull anything around today hehe.

But i think i'll go and start my nice relaxing day so until next time! If your Swedish have a awsome National Day! and if your not... well ..... HAHA enjoy your day working! :)
