Day 23

 Another quiet day in Sweden.

Woke up around 9.30am and turned the TV on.  Watched a few mind numbing episodes of ‘Hogan Knows Best’ on MTV and, before I knew it, it was nearly midday!  Arranged to meet Christian at 3pm to go for a ride on his bike then spent the next couple of hours sorting through photos I’d taken and uploading some to Facebook and Picasa.

Spoke with Nonna and Nonno on Skype for a while – they looked hot.  As much as I miss Australia, I’d rather be here in the cold than home in the stinking heat.

Headed down to Två Sex Ett for some Sunday afternoon tea and scones around 2ish.  It was about minus 5 outside, and felt it too.  Got there and found that Agnes (who’d been there the night before when Johan and Carl were playing) was working so I had someone to chat with every now and then.  She thought it was weird when I asked for whipped cream with my scones – apparently it’s more common in Sweden to have butter, cheese and savoury things on them.  Still, she humoured me and they were great.

Tea and scones, yum

While I was chowing down on my scones it started snowing outside – not exactly the best weather for motorbike riding.  Christian agreed, so we’ll have to wait for another weekend with more suitable conditions.

Pretty boring end to the weekend – got home, watched some more TV, played on the computer.  Defrosted my left over chilli con carne and cooked up some rice to have with it, watched a movie then got ready for bed. 

Three weeks down, seven more to go.
