Swedish Summer

So I have left the Californian summer for Sweden. Sweden's most beautiful season is the summer, so I did not at a bad time! This is the view of Odalgården, which is my grandmother's conference hotel a bit outside of Uppsala. 
 I went first through fourth grade here in Sweden, so I have could contact some old friends from school. Rasmus Andersson went to same school as I, and he still lives around the area, so I invited him over to Odalgården. It was 68F and We found some worms and started fishing.


We took the little boat out on the lake. I only caught small bate fish, but Rasmus caught a 2kg pike. However, the electric motor was dying, and I had lost all hope, so we showed the catch to the kitchen. My grandmother later made a soup from the fish, which felt really old-fashioned, but cool! There might have been some bones, but overall it was good.
On the otherside of the lake, tre örningen( three corners), some were jumping into the water. Rasmus was completely against swimming, but I was hoping to take a dip with some brave souls later on! I work at Odalgården as a waitress, receptionist, or whatever is needed at the time. On the otherside of the lake (about a two minute drive) is where I live with my grandmother until later.

Vi ses!
