Journey: Jokkmokk – Harsprangs – Lancaster Bomber – Sodra Stubbs – Gallivare I do love a lazy Sunday. We were late getting out of bed, had a coffee, took ages to get up, pottered about, had a second coffee and finally organised ourselves to go into town. Today’s mission was to plan how far north …

Journey: Skuleskogen National Park – Fredricka – Vormheden – Gimegolts Nature Reserve We were up bright and early for a 5.5km woodland walk before breakfast while it was still cool for the dogs. We reached two lovely lakes that the pups had a dip in…Ernest fell in and I had to fish him out – …

Journey: Fettjeafallet – Locknekratern Meteoritcentre – Sundsvall – Skuleskogen National Park Loved this meme shared by Sarah this morning – it is so true!

Day 63 – Thanks Google 🙈
Journey: Ales Stenar – Malmö – Arken (Denmark) We were up with the crows this morning, and found a lovely beach for the pups to have a roll around and play. Jasper has taken to having the occasional roll but Mabel just loves it and must have rolled 17+ times. Arriving in Malmö we had …
