July 12, 2010 Stockholm Sweden

ITS HOOOOOOOT!!!!

Very hot! Ended up taking Baby O to the ER yesterday since it was Sunday and no clinics open. She has been complaining about her ears and then she started getting a fever.
So thanks to my 'private driver' Ulrica we got around really easy. Both her ears were inflamed and her ear drums near bursting point. Poor little Baby O.... She got pain killers and penicillin and we picked up the prescription this morning and tricked her with some yoghurt to take the med.
Today she is doing much better, still complains a little so that has taken the idea of flying to Karlskrona away completely. Now we are going by train instead.
I was just trying to buy the tickets online but the security with buying stuff online here is incredible. You have to have a little calculator like thing and put in personal code then the code the internet gives you and you put that back in the calculator and it randomly picks a code for you that syncs with the internet and VIOLA' you are in! This was just to buy freaking train tickets.... but I don't have my machine here - its in the bags in Karlskrona so I am now waiting for dad to call me - or Jocum - who ever reads this, I have not been helped yet :) :) :) :) :) So whoever calls me first!!!

Stockholm has been amazing - its such a great place and we crammed in a LOT in the 5-6 days we've been here. Yesterday we spent the whole day at Ulrica's mum & dad's place. They have a pool and toys and all sorts. It was PERFECT!! kids played all day with Kine, Linn and their cousin Kanelis :) and we just watched - at least until Olivia started getting a fever and then it was off to doctor....

But when we came back they had the bbq on and we had a great meal with her sister Camilla, her husband Bjorn, Carina and Anders (Ulricas parents) and Rikard of course!!!
Then Ulle drove us all the way back to town and since it was Sunday night it was a really quiet night ie. noise on the street. Aj got to experience the noisiest days.

Oh and the soccer!! WHAT A GAME!!!! I could hear screams from all the flats along the street when Spain scored. I am happy Spain won - think they deserved it!

Just booked the ticket so we are heading south on the train tomorrow morning! Thanks for your help Sofia!! She was funny, she was giving me the code over the phone and she went capital .. small.... capital and then a capital 4 :) :) :) lol
