Sportslov, february 25th 2016 and the week after

Hey. I wrote this text on february 25th during the vacation. I didn't have internet access for a while and when school started, I was really busy. But today it's friday :) 


It is sportslov right now, sportvacation. Yes, Sweden has a special vacation for winter sport. We came to Dalarna last Saturday, we live at the grandma's place. It's very nice. We do something everyday, but we also rest a lot, it's the perfect mix between both. We do some sport, we meet some people, we eat good food. We went skiing twice. It was the first time for me. In the beginning it was a total failure and I fell like 40 times. But after an hour, it went quite well J and I had lots of fun. We were super lucky with the weather. The sun shone on both days and I even got a little tan. We went out with the sledge. But got tired of it pretty quickly, because we had to climb the hill all the time. After skiing the day before, that was exhausting. So we had a little BBQ with the family and ate some sausages. Yeah, I'm not a big fan of Swedish sausages, I'm used to the German sausages. But we had a really good time, it is so cozy having a BBQ in the snow. Today we will go ice skating and do something else on the ice. I forgot what it's called. [it is called spark] I might post pictures later. J
Have a good day everyone

The day after we went to a nice swimming bath in Dalarna. It was nice and somehow calming. They had pretty cool slides also. Oh and we took the cat with us to Dalarna. She was in the appartment the whole time. We had to put her in the car and that wasn't an easy thing to do. And she is not a nice cat. She scratches us with her claws and bites. My poor hostsister Eva had to carry her on the way to the car. 

Going back after the holiday wasn't a fun thing to do. The vacation was nice. Some sport, some time off, spending time with the family. But now everyday life starts again, which means I have a lot to do for school, I am more stressed and I have less time to enjoy things.
But that's just life. Oh and the weather. I always talk about the weather, right? Well a couple of days ago it was really pretty. It was not really cold, and the sun shone a lot. I felt so much more energetic, the sun is so powerful. Especially after all these months without sun. But now it's bad again unfortunately. The snow and ice is slowly melting. So there is ice and there are puddles. And the combination of both can be really dangerous. The sky is gray and it's raining. Not fun. But seriously? I have seen worse. Sweden made me become inured to cold weather. 

The weather isn't really good in Germany either, is it? We all need spring to come. Very soooon. Like right now!
