Yep this ice cream is good

The day we went to visit Michael Angelo was a good day.

I must tell you we chose to take the buss to the top of the hill, I'm glad we did too... It was proper steep going downhill, we pass some crosses that I didn't read but Ulis did she may tell you about them later.

There was a fantastic view over Fiorenze from the top si I am glad I went...






















I'm glad I did or I would have missed wedding where everybody except the bride and groom we in Wednesday afternoon normal attire! And the little girl next to us getting her head stuck between the 2 concrete posts...

And the great views.

On your skates

Hejsan, had a day off form work yesterday ...

Didn't really managed to get a minute though,
Went to the hospital with Kyle to check out his foot.

He was rather excited as you get one of them buzzers that goes off when it's your turn.
We were waiting for about 20 min for our set appointment and then the doctor came in to ask;

"Is it hurting?"
"Can you walk for me!"

and then he touched the foot and discharged us. A bit of 'wasting time' but then again we had a great experience with the NHS, National Health Service.

Went to Kyle's school as he is Star of the week in his class. I stayed the afternoon and had to sit in front of 28 googley eyed children who asked about Sweden and what me and Kyle got up to at home.

Kyle explained that he doesn't play with me at home (heartbroken me) and that his Mormor and Morfar has got a pool in Sweden in a big garden.

But the best thing, and biggest laughs was when he told everyone that he plays football with Grandad and that he can shoot it really high in the air and then stop the bounce with his bottom.
Very funny.

I also confused all the children by speaking Swedish. Oh and I also got offered a job as I was sooo good with the children... But the day wasn't over; got home, cooked dinner and then we got our skates on and went to the park.

Leah was on her roller skates and Kyle on his new roller blades. Myself, I was in my Ecco shoes. Kyle played football with his friend from school, Hayden, who turned up and Leah found a friend too.

When we got home I wanted to get them to bed and sleeping early so I laid down next to Kyle until Leah happened to bang her head on the headboard. I changed bed and made sure Leah was fine - and then I fell asleep...

Not a bad day for Thursday day off. Oh and I also managed 4 loads of washing AND changing the beds. Sometimes, just sometimes I get things done.
