A wonderful and exciting day...

...in the big forest is what we had today;=) Me, Nemo, Seth and my mother went to take a nice stroll in the beautiful forest and the weather was perfect with blue sky and 11 degrees;=)

We found nice things like piles of timber:

 Beautiful, very dangerous mushrooms: (look at the colours...wow!)


 Nice little insects like this fluffy, fury little centipede:

 

And then we started searching after Goecaches. For more info check www.geocaching.com:=)
We first found one site but didnt find the "treasure" so we moved on and finally we found another one:=)
Very safely hidden but Seth with his "hawk-eyes" spotted it and there it was! We signed our team name and put it back for next team to find!
 


 After this wonderful afternoon we continued home to mum´s place where we were served a wonderful dinner and dessert and nice company with lots of laughter and love:=) Can a friday be better?

Sleep really well now!

    Ahh wow! That sounds really interesting and those mushrooms remind of me something from Alice in Wonderland. I've always wanted to explore a forest, but I've lived most of my life around the desserts of the middle east where there are no forests. I did see the inside of the pyramids though which was definetly a great experience! You should totaly check out the middle east sometime!

    Best wishes! James x

    Get better! A lot of people love and want your best!

    Dear Anette! Once you've been to Ukraine, you wrote in your blog that you'd like to return. Nightwish has only once been here and so you do. It was such an awesome concert, with gifts from fan-club, with Ukrainian embroidered shirt and many other cool things around... And i dream that you return to Ukraine once again! You could go to Lviv, the best city in Ukraine and have some nice time there. There are so many interesting , old, and atmospheric places! A lot of cafes, statues, parks, historic buildings, legends, and many othere... I really wish you were here one more time... maybe with your project?new band? solo career?or simply on holidays...i'd be so happy...
    oh, don't know why am i writing it. waiting for your reply is hopeless...unfortunately

    your faithful Ukrainian fan

    I would like to try geogaching. My class mate does that weekly. It really sounds funny. He preferes the walks in the dark. Find the treasure with a flashlight..

    Well, I am happy you had a nice day. I hope your next we will be the same again...My next week is going to be a horror week. School is just so exhausting and I am sure that no teacher can imagine that we have got a real life outside of school..stupid..no freetime..

    And it's cool to see some pictures of you. You look beautiful! Well, now we have seen with our eyes you're getting better. I hope you shine inside as you do outside.

    Hello my dear,
    it's so good to see that you and your blog are back. I feared that you could maybe not feel well and that your blog was over. It warms my heart to read that you are fine. I missed your blog postings the last week. I love to read what's going on in your life even more than I expected.

    I'm very happy that your fans (me included) didn't lose their Nettie just because you left the band. You are much more than just the singer of a band. Please always remember that. You are warm-hearted, kind, lovely, talented, beautiful etc. and this is why so many people love you. You are a part of the life of all your fans and you have a place in our hearts. It's fantastic that you decided to stay in touch with your fans because otherwise that would have been a terrible loss.

    I wish you all the best for your future and take care of yourself.

    With so much love,
    Steffi <3

    Please would youask them about it? Si it came form France a year ago and it was a middle size package! =)

    Wow, thats an incredible forest. In the future, i'm gonna teach in rural zones of my country. I love to stay near to the mountains, the rivers, the trees, the islands... I love to teach and play with childrens, feeling free of the money, the stress...

    Do you like to live in a city?
    Or in a rural zone?

    Once you said you like James Morrison :) I like their music too :)
    Whats your favourite music-type?

    And Sweden is lovely. Great to see you are having fun. I hope all of your family are doing well and that Nemo is nice and healthy now. Looking forward to see what your career will be taking you now.

    Niwi: Hi! Here´s answers to your questions:
    Do you like to live in a city?
    - Yes, I do. I love to live in the city, but no bigger city than Helsingborg. My city has appr. 130 000 citizens so that´s perfect size;=)
    Or in a rural zone?
    - I love to live out in the middle of nothing too;=) I do not like to live in a small village where everyone knows me and where I can't be anonymous, so if I would live outside the city it needs to be in the middle of the forest or out by a field;=)
    Once you said you like James Morrison :) I like their music too :)
    - Yes, I love his voice and his music. When I feel sad I put on " Slave to the music", dance around and feel happier again;=)
    Whats your favourite music-type?
    - I love so many different styles. I love music that gives me something, either it is indie or pop or metal;=)
    Take care now!

    André Juan: Hi! yes, it is really fun! And good to do since the kids find it more fun to go outdoors when they have a treasure to hunt=) We haven't hidden one yet but as soon as we an and the weather is as good as yesterday we will;=) Take care!

    Helena: Hi! I loved it!! You´re very talented;=)Take care!

    Oceane: Hi! I´ll ask Sofia about this asap;=) Take care!

    Marcin: Hi! That photo is of the little plastic box we found doing the geocaching. it consisted of some little toys and the paper where you sign your teams name and date. Take care!

    Reinaldo; Hi! No, its very dangerous and non-eatable;=) But lovely! Its called Toadstool in english. Take care!

    Häxa; Hi! And thanks;=) I like that one too! The corset is bought from a store in Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles. The owner makes them custom-made and his name is Cosmo. A wonderful character;=) Take care

    THK: Hi! I do have one cat still, but she lives at my mothers place since she didn't like living in an apartment. So she is my mothers cat now;=) I hadn't seen that site but will check it out! Thanks for the tip;=) Take care!

    Whoa,everything looks so beautiful there.May I ask which season it is,in Sweden?Or just what is the weather like?It looks like the perfect place.I'm sure my little brother would have SO much fun with this 'seek' thing,if we only had that here!
    I'm so glad to know you're spending so much time with your family,I believe they're endlessly happy about it,too.I love seeing how joyful you are when you're with them.
    Hope you and the guys will have another great day today!
    xx

    Every autumn I go to the forest. We pick the edible mushrooms(not fly agarics!!).Also we cook them(fry, pickle).Did you ever pick mushrooms, Anette? :)

    Hi dear Anette ^ ^
    Gee, 11 degrees, cold * - * Here in Manaus, Brazil, does not reach that temperature xD here is very hot, is 40 degrees up in summer =) But when I traveled to other cities here in Brazil, which are cooler, took about 15 degrees at dawn = D (I'm talking about my life, you became bored, sorry love ♥)
    Beware of mushrooms Anette * - *
    Thanks for the photos Anette = D
    Kisses = *

    The Caterpillar you show in your photo is known here in the states as a "Woolly Bear". The deeper/denser the "fur" coat it has determines the amount of cold weather you may have. Of course this is a Native American legend...
