Field Notes

We made a weekend in the country as the first of our priorities for this years easter holidays. We have both been working hard, and our recent move was right in the middle of our proper wedding anniversary. So we decided to give the Gimo Herrgård a visit for the first time.

This great mansion was raised in 1760 to mark the status and give the proper luxurious enviroment for the owner of the Gimo industries. Most of the old industrial buildings are still around and give great scenery for walks. I really recommend this place as a getaway.The food is top-notch and the rooms are great. Every room has a yakuzzi and if you are lucky you get a private sauna as well! The only thing that was odd was that some of the paintings in the great halls probably did not come from the castles previous owners. Mermaids having graphic sex? I think not.

Today on friday we had a social gathering with family and we are in fact going to meet most of that gang again tomorrow for more sociabilities.

After that I hope that easter will give us some time to work on our apartment. Our handyman has promised us he will be ready by the 1:st of May. Lets hope so! The office I am writing in right now features a narrow path of free space, in an ocean of boxes and building supplies, that leads to my desk.

My internet tips for today is the family tree link for our newest member of the family. We met her again today and she is adorable: Isabel Valentina.
