Elizabeth arrived in the middle of the night on a Monday at the end of September. Graham and I proceeded to do a work week and Elizabeth found her way around our kitchen and yard and Tullinge in general. She made dinners and came along to yoga at the canoe club. The days are getting shorter, but we have had some time for kitty walks and forest foraging and some fika.

WE found a lot of mushrooms in the forest! 
The mushroom hunting gang 
Then we had an outdoor fika at the LIDA forest café 
This is Svartvit Hamnose, the neighbour cat we pet on the walk home form the forest 
Look fast and they seem the same, but this is Zorro (aka Tuna), a different neighbour cat on another day 
We have ad several awesome dinners made by Elizabeth (though rarely thought to take photos of them) 
…like this roast dins! 
October 4 was Cinnamon bun day, lowkey the best Swedish ‘holiday’.
A few highlights:
- Elizabeth got to meet local cats in person that were previously only known by WhatsApp photos.
- We got to walk around the nature spots in Tullinge and see some of the local sights, including the old church, the Viking fortress ruins, the canoe club, Lida and the lingon/mushroom forest, and the neighbours that share apples at this time of year.
- We went to the famous Tegnérs bakery for several loafs and a some treats.
- On October 4 we celebrated Cinnamon Bun day with fresh local buns made by new yoga-friend and neighbour, Johanna of Johanna’s Trädgårdscafé.
More weeks to come in this visit, so I’m sure there will be more highlights to come too!
Awww cute post, and cuter visits! Thank you for all the awesome hosting and fun Catherine and Graham!
