Birthday Weekend

CC & I celebrated both of our birthdays (on consecutive days) in one huge weekend! Dinner with her parents, a picnic, rollercoaster rides at Tivoli Gröna Lund, drinks with some of her really great friends, another delicious dinner at one of CC's favourite restaurants and a wedding on CC's birthday to top it all off! Massive. My old-man body and heart almost couldn't take all the excitement!

Special mention goes to this house, which made my day (I'm a simple guy, alright!). The roof needs a good mow. HUGE thankyou's to everyone for the birthday wishes and to everyone who made the weekend as awesome as it was (whether you were from Perth, Melbourne, the Phil's or Sweden) - you know who you are! I'll finish this particular post with some stunning artwork from some friends that you will all want to hang on your walls.

Hallstahammar

We went to Hallstahammar to check out one of CC's old favourite camping spots. At the camping spot they also happened to have these massive, ancient, cog-driven, boat-elevator things in the middle of the river, which allow the boats to go up/down different levels (ie so you dont have to crash your boat down a waterfall). I'd never heard of them before and I'm pretty sure we dont have them in Aus...interesting stuff to watch, anyway! Also: Piles of dried wood sitting in the middle of a river. A-mazing.
