From Idre Fjäll we made a short trip over the ‘Trollvägen’. It was cloudy, rainy, windy and cold. Amazing field with piled stones that had something to do with trolls, but I never really understood. We didn’t climb the Nipfjället and soon went back for a hot coffee.

From the Hortus
And finally some plants, from the Hortus Botanicus in Leiden.

Shooting up and down
Last Sunday we visited the Hortus Botanicus in Leiden to take some shots of our 2 kids and two nieces, for grandmother.
Sweden, Idre Fjäll
Our third goal was Idre Fjäll. When we got there it turned out to be a winter-sports-center without snow. But for the summer-tourists there were other sports-facilities, like swimming-pools, which was nice for the kids. (We prefer to jump in a river or a lake rather than in a container filled with chlorous water.) At the service counter a nice lady gave us the key to cottage 61.
As Idre Fjäll was a holiday-center, we did some shopping in the nearest town called Idre. Not very alive.
