I have actually been thinking of Hembygdsgården a lot this week. It is so good to revive memories. Always a lot of cookies, coffee buns n´ fun. I used to play a lot when I was little, but now it is different.

I have also thought a lot of Stockholm Marathon. It is memory for life. Perfect weather, lots of people and the challenge. I like challenges. This week I have been careful because it takes time for the body to recover. Walking and stretch. I am still a bit stiff. So now I am thinking of training for this summer.

Sharing a few pictures. I could not bring my cellular phone so photos are taken by Stockholm Marathon photo.

I am so lazy writing. Yesterday was Sweden´s official day. I stayed in the countryside where I am grown up. It is a little sad, I think, that a lot is disappearing in the countryside. The grocery store, the school and soon the bus is gone. However, hembygdsgården is still there. So, yesterday, we had cookies and coffee at hembygdsgården. So sweet!

Today has been a beautiful day but now a thunder storm is on its way. I am ok after Marathon. Been walking a lot. I think I am addicted to training. And it is true, there is something called runner´s addicts.

Yesterday was exciting. I do not have any pictures to show because I could not bring my cellular phone. However, I saw there are many inspiring pictures on the Marathon website. It was a wonderful day. Overwhelming sun, rather good temperature. My feet were fine, surprisingly. I could run most of the time, even though slowly. Since it was so sunny, I had to think of water because it can get dangerous with little water due to transpiration.

Of course, I was very tired when I got home. Very sleepy. Today I went for a walk with sweetie. Tippa is a little tired of walking so she prefers to stay at home. She is not that found of having her photo and her favorite hobby is to stay in the sun. Watch people passing by on the road. And in particular other dogs.

Tonight I joined my parents for a choir concert. Summer songs. Sharing a picture from today filled with lots of contrasts.
