From Storfors to Sturefors

Besides the reindeer, the hotel owners also have miniature horses. Tuesday morning, after we checked out, we drove with them a few minutes out to their place to see the horses. More fun for the girls; pictures to come.

Then off across the Swedish country side, stopping at a lake for a picnic and wading (along with hundreds of Swedish sunbathers), and finally to the little town of Sturefors (not to be confused with Storfors), just outside of Linköping, where we were greeted by Ed and Eva, and five of their combined six children (one teenage daughter had just left for a summer vacation on Malta, in the Mediterranean -- that's the kind of thing you can do easily when you live in Europe). They have a nice big old house on a dead-end street, remodeled with many small bedrooms for their many children. The girls are enjoying having playmates their own age, and a chance to just lay around and play board games and watch tv.
