TIME IS FROZEN AT FLICKORNA LUNDGREN

As last entry fortold, every summer, we try to go to our aunt in Skåne and live the countryside dream for a couple of days. This year, work was eating all our time and even with rescheduals and countless tries to get some extra free days, we still only manage to stay for 2 nights this summer.

During these days we did have time to go kayaking, ziplining and tobogan-ing, as well as celebrating our aunt's grandson's 2nd birthday - but we didn't have time to visit the best café in all of Sweden:

Flickorna Lundgren på Skäret. 

So this entry brings you back to a sunny, wonderful afternoon last year in july, when we drove the minivan to Skäret, a tiny tiny village in southern Sweden, and enjoyed an nostalgic Astrid Lindgren-like afternoon with a piece of Princesstårta and freshly brewed coffee.

TOBOGAN AND ZIPLINING IN HALLAND

So we went south in the most wonderful way possible - we went to visit Felicia's aunt in the tiny community Kvidinge in Skåne. Tagging along were also Felicia's sister Julia, 19 yo, and her brother Victor, 15 yo.

Coming from a somewhat stressful, modern city like Gothenburg, going to Skåne makes it feels like you're going back in time, or that the time has stopped. All three of the Axelssons have always visited Skåne during summers and family bithdays, so that might be a reason for the nostalgiac feeling.
Last year, we invited Jonathan to this tradition and soon it became a must even for him.

When arriving at aunt Cina's idyllic house that is pretty much equipped with everything you'll ever need in a Swedish summer, like an outdoors hot tub, a strawberry garden, a glassed-in porch, it was hard imagining finding a reason for even leaving the grounds.

Luckily, Cina is a master at finding things to do and we left for Kungsbygget, a ski slope that turns in to a tobogan/zipline in the summer.
