Welcome to our blogg.

We thought this would be a nice way to keep our friends and family updated about what we are up to! And for us to have some kind of diary, to save for the future when we move back home to Sweden. We choose to write in English so all our friend could read it=) (and it's also good practice for me)

About us

Dubai
We are a family of four, and one dog and six guinea pigs (and one cat that lives in Blentarp, Sweden) We moved to Dubai a year ago, Henrik is working here and Ingela is a housewife and both children are in school. Victoria is 7 years old and Cornelia is 5 years old. They are in grade 1 and 2. When they started school here, Victoria just started school in Sweden and didn't speak any English and Cornelia where still in kindergarten in Sweden and didn't speak any English either. Now a year later they speak English and writes and read English as well. They also learn Arabic in school. After some difficulties it seams like they enjoy school and our life here, and that feels very good. If they like it here it's easier for us to also relax and enjoy our stay here in Dubai. And now we have one more member of our family, a streetcat named Stripy, Findus, Nisse, Tiger and Findus=), and also one more guinea pig has died, so 5 guinea pigs left.

Monday

Today Victoria still is sick, but I dropped of Cornelia at school. And then I went to body pump class and that was hard=). When i came home me and Henrik took Enja for a walk around the lake.
And today at the body pump I spoke to a frien who also has a dog and now i finally got a group of people with dogs who is walking together once a week. And also a trainer who trains groups, so now I hope that she has a place left for me and Enja=). would be great to do some exercises and also meet some dogs, both me and Enaj needs to pratice on that. I think the walks are on Sunday mornings and trainings on either Saturdays och Tuesdays.
When I picked up Cornelia, we went to MOE (Mall of the Emirates) and had lunch and bought two sun chairs. Hope to be able to bring Henrik down to the beach soon!
Victoria has written a book today, containing 13 pages, all in English and with drawings too. If I'm aloud I will scan a page, but she said it was a secret.
Henrik is bored bored bored, but he's in a very good mode (if you ask him=)). Today his plan was to buy a wii, but nothing happened. Me and Cornelia bought "This is it" about Micheal Jacsson's last concert, and we watched it to night, Henrik was in charge of the dinner so he called 800-pizza!!! Tried to get a picture here, but no, that will just don't happen tonight?
