Have you seen the TV series Mother Goose? Did you realise that it is partly set here in our marina? Apparently there will be another season, because the film crew has been here again to shoot Mother Goose.
Otherwise, we have been hanging out on the deck in the fantastic weather. Unfortunately, we have not been able to get away with the motorhome, as there are still many faults on it that need to be fixed, but luckily we have so nice here in the marina.
New recording of Mother Goose
The TV series Gåsmamman is a Swedish thriller series centred around mother of three Sonja Ek (Alexandra Rapaport). Sonja's life is shattered when she realises that her husband is deeply involved in organised drug trafficking, and when she is suddenly forced into a dangerous game to protect her family.
In the show, the marina we live in is owned by criminal gangs, and it's quite bizarre to watch the show and hear them talk about selling the marina... You've also seen everything from childbirth to fingers being cut off in one of our neighbouring houses. Of course, we don't know what will happen in the next season...
Beautiful summer days
The motorhome is home from the workshop again, but unfortunately there are all sorts of problems with it. We can't go out with it yet, but have to go to the workshop and deal with the insurance company. Peter will tell us more about that soon.
It feels bad that our motorhome is not well, but otherwise there is no need for us at home. Yesterday we spent most of the day on the deck in the nice weather. In the afternoon there was a knock on the door. There was Peter's son Robin and his wife Alexandra! It was a very nice evening with a spontaneous barbecue dinner.

Hope it works out with the motorhome, the mother goose is a favourite hug for you/Diana.

Ama de casa says:
No, there is really no need for you, but it is of course super sad that Freedom is not feeling well... I hope it works out for the best, and much faster than it has so far gone there at the wintering workshop....
I haven't seen The Mother Goose, but it's cool to have a recording so close by, and then be able to see on TV what the neighbours are REALLY up to 😉.
Have a nice Sunday!
28 May 2017 - 9:35
Helena says:
Haha, well FINALLY you get to know what they are REALLY doing inside the aqua villas ... It seems to be a bit weird 😉.

Ditte says:
I have seen some episodes of the Mother Goose and exciting that now new ones are recorded in the marina but can imagine that the feeling is absurd regarding the action in your neighbourhood. Sad that "Freedom" does not feel good but hope it works out. The weather is lovely so it is nice to have a good time at home.
28 May 2017 - 10:32
Helena says:
Thank you, we hope that it will work out with Freedom. I don't have full control yet, but will start investigating everything properly now that it is weekdays again.

Gåsmamman is one of the better Swedish TV series I have seen and yes I have seen both seasons 🙂 fun that there will be a third.
Fun with recording in a familiar environment and as Ama writes above, you now know what your neighbours are doing 😉.
How sad that your campervan is still sick 🙁 .
except that you can't use it, which is a shame...
cars cost a lot of money to repair, money that could have been used for more fun 😉.
there should be a high-cost protection 😉.
Spontaneous visits and joint barbecue dinner, that's fun 🙂 .
You also seem to be lucky with the weather.
Here we have had grey, overcast, partial precipitation and around +9 the last few days. No weather that makes me go out with a smile on my lips 😉.
28 May 2017 - 11:29
Helena says:
Glad you've also seen Mother Goose and like it. We thought it was really good, so we are happy to see new episodes! Not least to know what the neighbours are doing, haha 😉 Yes, we have had high summer here! Sad that the nice weather did not reach you ...!

That lunch really did look perfect. Mmmmm shrimp in Sweden .... Gambas and lagostinos in all honour but shrimps! So good!
28 May 2017 - 13:18
Helena says:
I agree with you about prawns. When we travelled for a year in Europe, we ate a lot of prawns and that's good by all means. But shrimp that you buy here, that's something special! 🙂

Matts Torebring says:
But my goodness, the motorhome isn't ready yet! Then I think that workshop should be closed down! I might have put up with three or four weeks, but no more. Ps. I know nothing about film and very rarely see it.
28 May 2017 - 16:10
Helena says:
The motorhome is ready from the workshop and we have got it home, but now there are a lot of NEW errors, which seem to have occurred during the time at the workshop... ! 🙁

Åke Hammarbäck says:
I'll probably look up the last season of Mother Goose, maybe it's online!
Great sunshine and warmth!!!
Drove from 30 degree Berlin this morning, got a little sweaty as the AC did not want to cool after the winter rest, luckily I had ice cream in the freezer!
there is always something to fix and review with motorhomes, hope your problems are resolved so you can get out with the Freedom again soon!
Now you sit on the sun deck of MS Peter Pan and hope that the heat remains in Skåne too!
Regards Åke
Ps. Tropical Island was great!
The highest rating is the Sauna/Spa department, 9 designed luxury saunas with different themes, whirlpools, special showers and a wonderfully soft atmosphere. You want to go there again!
28 May 2017 - 16:23
Helena says:
The Mother Goose can probably be streamed from TV4, and it is worth watching! Great to hear that you had such a nice time in Germany! We have heard about Tropical Island before, but we have not been there. Glad it was so good! 🙂

I'm scared every time I go to the garage because they don't take care of me in a good way, I'm so used to the soft hands of the owners. Really sad that FREEDOM had got new faults, deplorable in fact.
Mother Goose is just so good and the owners can't wait for new episodes. It's nice for them to know that you live next door to this film set.
What a lovely weekend you seem to have had considering the wonderful pictures from your "house".
28 May 2017 - 18:02
Helena says:
I understand that you are nervous when you go to the workshop! Especially now that I understand what FREEDOM has been through ... But we have had a great weekend in the summer heat! Nice that your owners also look at Mother Goose. Next time maybe they will notice the houseboats here 😉.

Anette Åhnbrink says:
Great that you got to enjoy the nice weather! Can announce that the whole gang in Kristinehamn now looks like boiled crayfish? But we have had fun! What we liked about the fair and the dance and everything else, we will take at the time! Now we are home again on the island, so if you are in the vicinity, we are happy to offer a glass, unfortunately we have no guest parking for motorhomes....The goose mother we have stretched last winter, a big favourite! /Anette

Helena says:
We recognise that with crayfish, haha. It was enough to sit on the deck for a few hours to get bright red (and probably did not choose the most suitable shirt for it, haha). At the moment we are unfortunately not going anywhere because I have to work and Peter has to focus on repairing our motorhome ... Have fun!!!!

So exciting to see what the neighbours do 😉 It's sad that Freedom has more faults than before when it was in the workshop! Hope you get the misery straightened out. Nice with nice weather when you are at home and can enjoy the tyre life.
28 May 2017 - 19:07
Helena says:
Yes, there are really many more faults on the motorhome now than before we handed it in. Feels soooo sad. We need it in a few weeks so I really hope we get everything straightened out now!!!!

I am hopelessly ignorant when it comes to series. But it's nice to have a close-up recording.
Super sad about the Freedom car. Really hope it works out!

Helena says:
Thank you, we also hope it works out with husis!

Linda says:
Excited about filming!
Yes, your boat was slightly bigger than ours 😉 but the enjoyment is probably the same:) I love the sun glitter in the water. It is like balm for the soul.
Hope you get your motorhome sorted! That sounds complicated and energy consuming. Good luck to you!
28 May 2017 - 20:39
Helena says:
Yes, our boat is something between a boat and a house 😉 But the feeling of being out on the water is probably the same! Wonderful! And thanks for the congratulations on the motorhome, a long boring process that we hope to see a solution to soon!!!!

BP says:
There's always something exciting happening in Marinan! I have not seen the series, but now I am interested of course:
Fun with a spontaneous visit by Peter's son and his wife. The environment in Pampas Marina is fantastic, just take the opportunity to enjoy the nice weather:-)
PS. Fortunately, you also seem to have recovered! DS.
28 May 2017 - 21:44
Helena says:
Yes, there really is always something happening! 😉 And thanks, I feel much better now even though I still don't have much of a voice. It has been nice to be at home, and as I said, here will not be boring ... 😉 😉

Mother Goose is a good show, so it's good that it's getting another season.

Helena says:
We like it too, so it was nice to see that they were here to record more 🙂 .

Susjos says:
How exciting with TV filming! Yes, I have seen the first season of Mother Goose, but not the continuation, I simply haven't had time!
29 May 2017 - 0:03
Helena says:
Yes, it's kind of fun! Not the first time actually, that they choose to shoot scenes in a TV series or film here 😉.

Gunnel says:
I haven't seen Mother Goose, but it must be particularly exciting for you as it is filmed in your neighbourhood.

We think the show is good, and yes, the scenes from the bridge are extra fun 😉 .

Let's hope that FREEDOM gets on the road with you soon.
I haven't seen Mother Goose. I'm a bad series follower.
It's an eventful life you live.
29 May 2017 - 5:50
Helena says:
Maybe we don't even need to watch TV series, because things are happening here, haha 😉 Yes, we really hope Freedom gets better!!!!

Lena - good for the soul says:
Haha, can understand that it feels a bit tricky with such unpleasantness from the film in your environment! Fy!
Cosy when the kids come to visit!

Haha, yes, very criminal in this marina if the TV series is to be believed... 😉 .
