Nimis

After a rather adventurous walk they all reached the treesculpture on the beach called Nimis. It is quite unique.

View of Mölle


On the way down from Kullaberg, they stopped to enjoy the view of the coastal village Mölle.

Iitala outlet

Pinga's sister and husband is visiting at the moment. They came yesterday evening. Right now they are in Hōganäs. There is a famous ceramics company there and they have an outlet store. Moomin goods are sold which Pinga loves.

Tiny


The kitten at Pingu and Pinga's friend is so tiny. Look at Pingu's hand and compare.

Midsummer?


It's called midsummer but it rained and hailed! Pingu and Pinga are at their friend's place and they were grilling.

The nameless kitten

Pingu and Pinga are visiting a friend to celebrate midsummer. This little kitten is a temporary tenant at that friend. Ain't she a cutey?

Guarding

Pinga is reading a book and I am making sure I am close in case something would happen to her.

I want out

Pingu and Pinga have had me locked up since they moved to the new apartment. It is getting boring and I am trying to show them by staying by the front door and meowing. They don't seem to understand. Once I managed to escape into the building hallway but Pingu caught me.

Exclusive strawberries


Pingu and Pinga's friends brought Swedish strawberries for dessert. Due to recent night frost many berries were destroyed. Therefore are Swedish strawberries rare and very expensive right now.

Almost midsummer sushi


Pinga made tasty sushi rolls again. Pingu and Pinga's friends liked it a lot.

Fish hassle


As Pinga and Pingu planned to make sushi and invite friends, they went to buy fish during lunch time. Lunch break was short and there was a line at the fish wagon. Many people were there to buy herring for Midsummar. Pinga was unhappy with the service she got from one of the guys at the fish wagon but in any case she got the fish...

In chains...


Pingu and Pinga got something for me that I don't like. They have a plan to go walking with me but I can't walk comfortablly with this thing on. I tried to back out of it but it didn't come off.

Delayed present 2


The second present is tough to figure out. There is cat candy coming out of a plastic ball but I don't know what to do. Maybe sniff it?

Delayed present 1


Pingu and Pinga gave me birthday presents two days late but that is ok. I took liking directly to this nice blanket. Comfy!

Pinga's parents went for a tour of the city hall. Pingu and Pinga was standing in line for climbing the tower but the line was too slow. The tower is 106 meters so it is quite high.

Noisy students


At the moment, high school students all across Sweden are graduating. They celebrate by going around town on trucks with loud music playing. In Stockholm they cause a lot of traffic congestion.

On the balcony

Clever Lovis


Lovis jumped onto the table and started drinking milk from a glass using his paw. Pinga noticed and moved the glass to the floor. Clever Lovis right?

Lovis is getting used to Pingu and Pinga. Right now he is lying on the bed next to them.
