Happy Friday! This week we've had a report published in a camping magazine, and a film crew has been here and made a recording. We also have lots of other fun stuff going on!

Report in All about caravanning & camping
This week our report on the 'Beach Basket Challenge' was printed in the newspaper All about caravanning & camping. Fun! This article is about the motorhome trip we took in north-east Germany last summer with six other motorhome crews. Maybe you've seen it?
Film shooting at the houseboat and motorhome site
On Tuesday, two guys came here and interviewed and filmed us, both at the houseboat and at the motorhome. The film team is making various small films for the Elmia fair and the film will soon be shown on Elmia's Facebook page. @ElmiaCaravanCaravan. Fun! By the way, will we see you at Elmia this year? We will have our own small stand and will also hold six lectures!
Lots going on
As usual, we work a lot and this week it looked like the picture below in our kitchen. We were planning journeys, meetings and participation in events and needed both Peter's and my computers (work and private) in front to get all the calendars together. We also ordered several interesting gadgets ... more on that later!
High summer days
Otherwise, it has been completely fantastic high summer weather this week. The marina has been full of holidaymakers, small boats, stand up paddle boards and jet skis (which go way too fast).
Best this week
The best this week is both been the weather and all the fun we have going on. We do get terribly tired at times (there's a lot to keep in mind right now!) but it's also a lot of fun. What has been the best part of your week?
The week ahead
The week ahead will be, to say the least intensive. On Sunday we will make an exciting excursion in the Stockholm area and on Tuesday Peter is travelling to ... Switzerland! I (Helena) won't be able to join him, as I'm doing online training at work, but I won't be in any trouble either.
One evening I am going to a mingling event and another evening there is a boat trip. The posts about Switzerland will be delayed until Peter comes home, but we will still have a lot to talk about during the week!

Right? Fun to see all the activity on the water, I think! 🙂 And haha, we try not to work too much, but it's a bit difficult when you do what we do 😉 Wish you a nice weekend!

High summer weather we have had hot and sweaty. Helped my daughter thought I would run away. Now we are going on an excursion today on northern Zealand and tomorrow party here with the family.
Coming to Elmia and working for the fourth year with Caravan Clubb?

What a fun but hard week you had!
I hope the magazine with the story is waiting for us when we get home.
The best part of the week for us is of course that we are out with the motorhome again, so wonderful!
Therefore, there will be no Elmia for us, it would have been fun to be there and meet you but despite 20 years at the Genetics Laboratory, I can't clone us! Have a good time!

Helena says:
Great to be on a roll! A bit of a shame that you can't clone yourself ... but that would certainly cause a lot of problems too on the other hand, haha. Wishing you a nice weekend!

Thank you, Johnny! Yes, now it goes around the floor I was about to say. A lot of fun going on with also a lot to hold on to 😉.

It's great to have so much going on and congratulations on the publication in the magazine.
The best thing about my week has obviously been the cruise and the visits to Greenland. The worst (yes, there are such things too even though it is Friday 😉 ) is wiffit that refuses to upload pictures. Oh well. I will come out of the satellite shadow at some point. May amuse myself with other things so long - which is actually not a bit difficult 🙂 .

Helena says:
Thank you!!! The cruise seems absolutely fantastic!!! Despite the lack of wifi then, but maybe it has its advantages too, who knows? 😉

Ditte says:
Fun with a lot going on! And extra fun here with both reporting and filming.
Best of the week? Yes, a lot of things. The nice weather, nice excursions, some fun jobs that are going on. Both travel jobs and others. Extra fun is that I sold a couple of pictures to a company in Finland in connection with our nice trip there.
Wishing you a good weekend.

Helena says:
What fun that you sold some pictures! You really seem to have and have had a lot of fun going on! 🙂 Wishing you a nice weekend!

Lisa says:
You seem to be busy . It will be nice to read what Peter thinks Switzerland has to offer. Certainly a fantastic country but expensive after what we heard.
We have this week made a nice trip to Hökensås and Hjo. Outside Hjo lives our daughter and her two girls and it was the highlight of the week to meet after all the summer's trips.

Emma, sun like sun? says:
What fun with all the activities! @ Looking forward to seeing the film with excitement! Tell the Elmia guys that you must be able to see it outside Sweden's borders only. 🙂
Best of the week? 24 degrees in the sea!

Enjoy the report on the Beach Basket Challenge!
What a busy week, and it won't get any less busy next week, but you like being active. Just don't work yourself to death!

So much fun stuff happening to you. Both newspaper reports and television, fun.
Peter is one step ahead of us to Switzerland and will probably have time to leave when we get there.
Have a nice weekend.
