Vanessa (Oz), Ian (Eng.), Steve (Kiwi) and Emily - all friends from the Middle East trip - came over for a weekend in Sweden. Here we're at Ven.

We had some nice lunch from the local fishermen's smoke-house.

We went biking on the island between the bright yellow rape fields.

Swimming.

Claes joined us for dinner...

...and we had a tournament of the Swedish game Kubb, in front of Claes house.

The house is beautifully placed in front of the small harbour.

The next day, we had a summer games party back at my house in Lund.

More games of Kubb,

croquet and

BBQ.

All-you-can-eat-breakfast at &bar - what a great Sunday activity.

More Kubb in the botanical garden.
