After all the bubble wrap yesterday we decided to get away from the house a little bit, a good friend of ours told us that we need it sometimes ?. We don’t think about it while we are in the middle of everything, we try to take any free time to work with the packing and that leaves us stuck at home very often.

We decided to treat ourselves with some good food, so we went to Söderköping and a fantastic china restaurant, I’ve been there before, I was not very impressed by either the food or the service, but it was a couple of years ago and we’ve picked up some take away since then which we really enjoyed so we decided to give them another chance.

We don’t regret it, we couldn’t decide for one dish per person so we ordered a few more that sounded really good ? The waiter looked sceptically at us and explained that it will be a lot of food but we went forward with it ? look how delicious it looks.

The food came in very quickly and it was really well-cooked and tasty ? A lot of food on the plates and the best of all, it tasted very good. The service was awesome and the nice staff made sure that Lukas had ice cream with caramel sauce twice ? well it’s not very often that we are at a restaurant so we had to give him some sweets ❤ It was very cozy to have a family-dinner and a break from all the packing and bubble wrap ?

One of many funny moments during the evening was when I saw something I had not seen before, at the other end of the room was a man and his wife and they sat just below a lot of lamps, but this gentleman thought the light was a bit bad ? I guess as he magically pulls out a little bag which held a pretty big, portable table lamp that was able to light up the whole restaurant ? a really clever thing  ? when he was done eating he folded the lamp and put it back into the bag, brilliant ?

Fredrik took a picture of the brilliant, portable lamp but sadly the guy was also in the picture so we cannot use it here ? Instead we give you another picture of the great food that we ordered, thanks to his beautiful lamp we managed to take great pictures of the food ?

But now it’s monday and the packing is on again, I told Fredrik a couple of weeks ago that we should test-pack the car before the day comes when we are going to go our 3500 km across Europe towards our dream-house.

So when I had empties the card this morning I put some boxes in to see how many we could fit ? Fredrik didn’t really like the result ? He thought that we should be able to fit more boxes on top of each other then we could. So I sent him a proposition today, about a roof box ?. We normally keep in touch most of the day when he is away on jobs and normally it’s done via WhatsApp. I really had to save this conversation, I haven’t laughed so much in a long time, first you can see how uplifting he is but he quickly realise that we have more stuff to bring down with us, for example golf-stuff ? it will most likely not fit inside the car. So I suggest a roof box on the car, it takes a few minutes for him to think the idea through and then he realise that it’s actually a pretty good idea, as long as it’s not ugly (we agreed on that pretty quickly ?).

Sorry for only having the print screens in Swedish.

(I am the green box and Fredrik is the white one)

 

It feels like a long time since I laughed so much, during a couple of minutes my sceptical man goes from not wanting to have the roof box, for different reasons, to start looking for a box to buy online and then realise that he might even be able to bring his own golf clubs if we buy a box ?

Love you honey ❤ Thanks for all the laughter and smiles you always give me !
