My White Christmas


Snow, snow and more snow! Just when I thought I had seen all the snow I needed to see in Sweden during my Christmas and New Year holiday, I get back to England and there is more of it - apparently the most in 30 years! But I don't mind, it's been kinda fun sledding and building snowmen.
I spent three weeks in Sweden staying at my Amma and Afi's place in Boras. I also went on a train to Orebro, about three hours away where there was even more snow. We celebrated Christmas Eve there with my uncle Steini, aunt Lisa, cousins Emma and Amanda and my aunt Linda. Depil the dog also came with us and he was able to visit his brother and mummy. My mum and dad took me out on a sled which is great fun. It was very cold in Sweden, sometimes it was -18 degrees - most days it was -10.

And on the day we flew back to England, Heathrow was closed because of all the snow they had in England and we had to wait until we were allowed to take off from Gothenburg. Then, when we were allowed to go, the plane taxied to the runway and then returned to the gate due to a technical fault - we had to wait four more hours for a new plane to arrive. Eventually, we arrived at Heathrow where my Grandma and Grandad was waiting for me. As well as more snow! I've settled back into my old routine of watching dvds, going to the Teddy tumblers Club and Creepy Crawlers playtime.
Oh yeah! Happy New Year to all my readers!
