Yellow house on the right by the bus stop!!

An early start to Thursday made me understand just how living in that bubble Sweden could be. We set off down to Oland which is a large island off Kalmar. I was driving and Maria had spoken to the lady which we had bought this fabulous Stove. As we crossed the brige into Oland I asked Maria where to go now, to which she replied, " Its the Yellow house on the right, there should be a bus stop just after it???"

What followed was a 20km drive passing yellow house after red house after yellow house.........you can guess the picture. It like saying we live next to the tree on the right......anyone who has been to Sweden knows how apparant Trees, Red Houses and Yellow houses are here.

Anyway the 2 hour journey was well worth it once we got our hands on this baby £300 new instead of paying over £600 from the store..... Next IKEA, an intence shopping afternoon followed by Meatballs! Nice
