Then it was time to roll with the campervan again! One advantage of remote work is that we can work in any location, and after long periods at home it is nice to have a change of scenery. Last time we drove north of Lake Mälaren, so now it's time to head south ...

Motorhome trip after motorhome trip
Right now it's motorhome trip after motorhome trip for us. So nice to have a change of scenery, new views and to see some new people (outdoors and from a distance). Since I (Helena) work, we will stand still from time to time, but in between we can move and see new places.
This time we have decided to roll southwards. The plan is to aim for Norrköping, Linköping and the area around Lake Vättern, but we are keeping an eye on the development of the pandemic and adapting accordingly. On the other hand, it is mostly outdoor activities that apply right now! So, in a few days when it goes off.
April weather
April weather is a familiar concept, and this year the April weather has certainly lived up to its name. Some days it has been summer every other hour and winter every other hour. After the weather seemed to be for uncomfortable, we decided to take the houseboat home for a while.
Ordinary walks in Stockholm - extraordinary colours
This week, we've been at home, focusing on work and business, and going for our usual slightly boring walks... We haven't seen the cherry trees in the Kungsträdgården, but there is also a beautiful pink tree on Kungsholmen, opposite Karlberg Castle and Castle Park.

Best this week
The best part of this week was the visit to Stendörren nature reserve. Absolutely fantastic! When I see the pictures, I want to pack a lunch and go back there. What has been the best part of your week?

Annika in Spain says:
That picture from Stendörren is wonderful! You want to go there!
What fun with a new motorhome trip! Of course you need a change of scenery!
Probably the best thing this week was that the provinces in Andalusia finally opened up again. Jesús will go to Seville already today to see his dad and play with the group after a three month break, I'm daydreaming about going there alone one day next week to visit a large commercial garden, and buy caviar at Ikea 🙂.

Wonderful that you are soon on the road again! Here we have been satisfied with day trips for a long time now, but that's not so bad either. Fun to see new surroundings 🙂
The best thing this week is probably that I got my first shot against the miserable virus. Although we've been out and about on other pleasantries too. Oh dear. I managed to get it right so getting a shot counts as a "nice thing". Yes, these are really strange times now...?
Have a wonderful May Day evening!

Day trips are not bad either, as long as you get to see something new from time to time! Congratulations on the syringe! And yes, the syringe has recently been upgraded to a nice thing 😉.

What we long for with the motorhome when we see everyone who is out and about, but now there is a week left before moving and it feels like we are in good shape in planning. On Monday there will be at least a day trip to Jönköping because we will do a moisture test and mount a bicycle rack on the motorhome.
Have a nice May Day and a new cosy motorhome trip!

It will be fun to read what you discover in Norrköping and Linköping. Follow some bloggers who live there and show pictures. Oh Norrköping is definitely one of my favourite cities:-)
Have a really nice trip!

Oh, we had also planned a family trip to Östergötland soon - but just read that it is personal lockdown that applies there now. Absolutely crazy, when will the misery end? 🙁

Helena says:
Yes, we also read that, so we hesitate, but maybe if we stay in the motorhome and at a distance, we will see. Hope you also get away when it works!!!
