The exciting life of the Löfmans
As usual we are lazy on updating our website and much time has passed since we updated last… So here’s a quick mixture of uncategorized favourites from early Summer and onwards to bring us up to date.
On the 22nd of May it was the annual Göteborgsvarvet. We met up with Ida and her friends for a lovely picknick at her place to watch. We couldn’t have asked for better weather, it was both warm and sunny. However for the competitors it was a little on the hot side and there where quite a few who collapsed during the day.
I really love Spain and after being to Fuengirola my very positive opinion about Spain has only increased!
Fuengirola is a small town of about 60-70000 people situated about 30 kilometers south of Malaga on Costa del Sol. I didn’t know anything about Costa del Sol before but thought it would be touristic little place with rather crappy and crowded beaches (for some reason), but I was pleasantly surprised to find and town bustling with tapas bars and really long and nice beaches with plenty of room for everyone. Yes, at the beach it is touristc but if you go a couple of blocks from the beach you have wonderful bars and genuine Spanish restaurants (as far as I can tell anyway).
The prices are really good – you can get tapas and beer for 1 Euro each! Let’s just say the we gained a couple of kilos on this trip and leave it at that!
We stayed at Dominique and Lisette’s flat which is located smack in the middle of everyting – 5 minutes to the train station and 5 minutes to the beach. They share a 3 bedroom flat so there was plenty of room for everyone. We have a really, really nice time staying with them – they even cooked us dinner!
Noemi didn’t like the ocean at first, the water was freezing, but eventually wanted to play in the water. We had bought un umbrella trolly for this trip which turned out to work perfectly for her. She eats anything little Noemi and we fed her tapas, curry, calamari, prawns – you name it – and she ate it all. She’s such a good girl! Unfortunately this also means she eats sand, rocks, shells – you name it – which is a nuisance. But still, she such a good girl!
Chiquita also got a little bananas with the shopping and keeps telling me that she wished she had bought more since it was so inexpensive.
All in all we had a wonderful time and have both agreed that we will move there when we get older.
Finally Winter has melted away and Spring is well on it’s way! Noemi tried out her friend Samuel’s swing the other day much to her amusement. Then came Easter and of course Noemi enjoyed her Easter eggs very much, even if I think she was more facinated by the actual paper egg itself then the contents. Among this little picture update is also Noemi in her cute brown dress she was given for Christmas by her farmor, it was the quite big then but now fits perfectly!
Since the new year has begun we’ve been lazy updating pictures… So, here comes a mixture of our favourite pictures bringing us up to date. Among other occasions there are pictures from when cousin Leah meets Noemi for the first time, Noemi’s first pig-tails, Noemi’s birthday party and bath time pictures.
