Fireworks and a Viking Game

July 6, 2010

Happy Independence Day America! It’s funny reminiscing how, when I moved in the U.S., it felt weird watching fireworks on July 4th when I grew up watching fireworks on New Year’s Eve. Now it seems so natural – fireworks in the summer.

Fourth of July Fireworks

We spent the day hanging out with great friends who introduced us to Kubb, a Swedish lawn game also known as Viking Chess. And of course, we spent the afternoon playing a few rounds while our dogs (we had three total) ran in and out our play zone. It didn’t take long for me to realize that I sucked at the game! Even Mica was better at it than me. Maybe it’s because I’m throwing with my left hand – haha! I know, I just need to practice.

How was your fourth of July? I bet you’re suffering from bug bites as much as everyone in my family.

Con mucho amor,
