The Secret Garden

Okay, this place isn't exactly a garden, but I never see anyone there and it's quite gorgeous.  However, it's not quite secret, as it's just in between where the two paths meet up the hill in Valla Skogen.  Yes, people did stop to stare.  The other pictures were taken on "our" side of the school (where Farrah and I have classes, but the rest of Swedish friends frequent rarely), mostly along this man made river-type-thing that was designed to clean water naturally, so all the rain pipes dump into it.  It's rather beautiful- but today it was less so, as it was less windy.

Also, I'm giving you fair warning - there are lots of couple-y pictures and some gratuitous shots of myself.  I also apologize my obsession with over-editing, hopefully I'll get over soon (but it's so much fun!)

First up, Christoffer and Farrah:

The Happiest Place on Earth

Before I went home, I called my family and tried to make them promise we would go to Disneyland.  A couple weeks passed and it was about time to go home, but THEN my lovely, generous mother surprised me with a trip (even after I was being mean old cranky pants).  Having a pass while growing up, it feels like another home to me.  I have so many happy memories there, and I'm really grateful I had another chance to go.
