I got some tickets from work for the bookfair but had not had time to go earlier in the week so it had to be Saturday..... not the best of days as this is when the rest of the public visits. (I didn't even make it upstairs to the graphic section.) However it worked out nicely as a family outing. Paul got to get some of his awaited SiFi novels and Mina truly enjoyed it. It was absolutely rammed with people and it took us a good hour once we got into central of Gothenburg, just to find a space in a nearby car park. I knew we should have taken the train (obviously didn't think of this until we were stuck in the traffic jam). We did an impressive pit stop tho in the only green space we passed on the way (Minas very well planed toilet visit), the car only move a few meters up the street.
After the bookfair we went to the Mac store to buy a new battery to my laptop (been working on a stationary laptop for far too long) was shocked at how much it was, electronics are so much more expensive in Sweden. Anyway now I don't have to be plugged into the main any more - and its worth any penny.
We rounded off our family outing with a trip to Andreas and Jossan for a homemade apple pie. Mina had chosen a book for Sally - Vem sover inte? by Stina Wirsén. Think Sally will become as big a fan as Mina after a little while whom herself chose a more daring title - Vem blöder?
Mina is not the only one who is a big fan - I love them too. You can read them over and over again without getting bored (compared to many other young children books) and they bring up topics that are relevant to small children is such a clever way.
I also bought a wicked colour-in book for christmas.
Yes its true, I have already started to plan for christmas.
