Sunday

Sunday morning was spent walking/jogging around the local lake-a 10 km trip which H intends to be able to do without stopping or walking by the time we leave here. Then off to the shops for supplies for the week, lugged back to our upstairs apartment in the rucksack by G. Meat and chicken (krychling) is very expensive (from $20-$26 per kilogram respectively), yet other items such as dried fruit (blandfrukt) is cheap. We bought the most awful bread last shopping spree (sweet cardboard) so are being pickier from now on. There was a nice farmers’ market in a park on Saturday with lovely bread, but that market is only once a week and only till the end of September when it appears that veges will more or less come to an end with the colder weather. Oh dear…

Architecture is interesting; rather plain and a bit like what we have seen in the Czech Republic (sort of Russianly utilitarian). Even the museum (Bilt museet) looked more like a factory, although it housed a most beautiful exhibition of aerial photographs of different parts of Sweden by Lars Bygdemark-well worth finding his work if you can A and A as you will love the patterns in it.
