Malmo Adventuring

Regan and I went out for a walk this morning around the neighbourhood. The area we are staying had a significant amount of development in the 60/70s and it fascinates me that the whole street have exactly the same houses, it was another cool day so was pleased to have packed some merino.

After forskola drop off for Augustine we all went into Malmo to explore. We took the bus which was very easy. First stop was a bakery for our first cinnamon and cardamom buns. They were delicious although I did taste cardamom for the rest of the day. There is no soy milk in cafes so I have had to try the local oat milk.

Next stop was Slotts park which ran into Kung’s park is in the centre of the city. It was a beautiful space with a gorgeous lake, giant elm trees and beautiful gardens. It led to the old town centre which was so quaint.

Emily, Judy and I did a quick shop and I managed to make my first holiday purchase of a lovely winter jacket. Lunch was in a cafe in a delicious home store but the prices were a little scary when you did the conversion.

We walked to the area where Emily used to live which has beautiful old grand buildings and this huge elm lined avenue with parks and community gathering space all along it. We did a playground visit after forskola and then had the fun of fitting a pram, 5 adults and one very tired toddler on a packed commuter bus home.

It was a very quiet evening once the little ones finally settled for the night. We are still trying to sleep past 4am.Read more
