Happy Friday friends! This week we can rejoice in the fact that we got the water pressure back in our taps, and that we finally got to the front of the queue for the doctor to fix Peter's knee. Now we can't say that the knee is really fixed yet ... but at least it's Friday! We have also been to a fun travel event. Do you have anything nice, pleasant or positive to tell from your week?
Divers in the marina
Why have we had divers in the marina this week? Well, because we've had absolutely zero water pressure in the taps and showers lately. One morning when I went to take a shower, I only had time to half body before the water dried up and disappeared.
It was just a matter of getting dressed and looking happy. But that's because the divers were actually fixing the leak at that very moment! Since the divers were down at the beginning of the week, the water pressure has been perfect. Happy Friday!
Travel event with Wowanders
You may remember the app Wowanders that we tested last summer? Wowanders is a smart travel diary that helps you automatically save all the places you visited during your trip - and then share them with your friends. Last night, the Wowanders founders visited Stockholm and invited all the travel bloggers in town to a nice event.
Afterwards, a group of us moved on to the Cloud Nine restaurant on Torsgatan, where we chowed down on Asian snacks, laughed and talked about blogs and travelling, until it became little too late. But you need such evenings!
On the picture you can see Peter from FREEDOMtravel, Veera from the Finnish travel blog Veera Bianca, Maija from Wowanders, Polish Marta from the English-language travel blog A girl who travels, Taru from Wowanders and Sandra from Permanent residence. Nice bunch!
How did the knee injury go?
What has been happening with Peter's knee injury Then? We promised to report today and we were hoping that Peter would dance this weekend, but really that's not the case. In fact, it's just a tiny bit better, but no more than that. Maybe there will be another visit to the local hospital ... But right now we're not going to let it get us down. Now it's Friday! Have a nice weekend!

Well, one son has come back from his UN service. Last time there was unrest at the site, so there were some worries, but this time it has gone better... So we and the partner are happy that he is back again. Then it's Friday again. The Friday friends are happy.

As far as Peter's knee is concerned, if a problem has been going on for x number of months it may not go away in a couple of days, but with a positive attitude it will probably go away much faster than the other way round.
I have a Happy Friday today, long holiday weekend and am on the train down to Gbg to have lunch with a daughter and then pick up the grandchildren from school and have a cosy afternoon.

You may be right that he has had the problem for too long for it to go away so quickly. We must have some patience! 😉 Wishing you a nice trip to Gothenburg!

It's good that the knee is moving in the right direction anyway - then it's moving forward anyway.
There's a tour of Spain going on right now, and travelling always makes me happy 🙂.
Have a nice Friday!

Yes, things are still moving forward! Nice tour! 🙂

If Peter's knee gets a little better every day, it will soon be completely fine. Have a nice weekend!

Good thought! 🙂 Wishing you a nice weekend!

So nice to be able to shower again and hopefully Peter's knee is getting better and better day by day.

A shower is not a bad thing 😉 Thank you, and have a nice weekend!

How nice that you have finally got your water back. Imagine how dependent you are on water, not only for showering but also for cooking and not least for drinking.
Fun with the event. Oh the food - yummy!
I really hope that Peter's knee gets better soon. As he commented, he may need another injection, but after that...

Helena says:
You really are extremely dependent on water! Have a nice weekend!

I really hope Peter's knee gets better in the end!
Yes, it may not be easy to detect a leak early if the leak is in the water, it doesn't really spray in the same way as on the street. It must have been less pleasant to only have time for half a shower.

Helena says:
That's right...The water leaks here are usually underwater, and sometimes it takes a while for them to find them....

Emma, sun like sun? says:
So ... to stand in the cold and the hot water or pressure disappears ... Nothing to do with a Happy Friday! For me it was cool but the heat came back but you wonder what the hell it was that made the heat withdraw in that way. But better cool water than nothing at all!
But now we are clean and fragrant! Great on a Friday like this!

So haha, it was VERY tricky when the water ran out and did not feel fun at all at that time. A little fun in retrospect 😉 Nice weekend!

Oh, what fun it was to meet at the event! Imagine that you went on! You should have been there. But I barely made it on the train home. 😉 Can imagine that it was late, haha. But it was well worth it.
Hope Peter's knee will be fine!
Have a nice weekend. 🙂
