Well, I guess it should be "What's new, Stockholm?" And like Evita, little Tova Elise took the big city by storm, (well, sort of). Anyway, it was her first trip on a train and the first time to the big city. She took it all in stride and came back with a successfully complete passport application and on her way to becoming a recognized Canadian citizen.
Meanwhile I walked along the water, sat and had some lunch by the fountain in the park, and shopped in the big city stores. Actually, Gavle has a very good selection of retail possibilities and so there is not that much need to go elsewhere. Rich and Jenn did get their new tent in the big city and so they are ready to take the little one camping. She loves being outside -- it always seems to calm her -- and so will be delighted to live outdoors. Not quite sure when they will take the first trip, but I'm sure it won't be too long.
When we got back to Gavle (about 5 pm) it was such a nice day that we decided to go for a walk at Hobgo and have dinner at the fabulous restaurant which is associated with the natural area. Neither the walk nor the meal disappointed anyone and little Miss slept through all 4 of our courses before she awoke and asked for her dessert.
