..measuring some180 kms from the northern tip to the south. Today we drove som 200 kms from Stenkyrka with friends from a big farm in Vale in the north to Rone in the south to have lunch with old friends from Saltsjöbaden - Kerstin and Peter. They bought their Gotland house in the 90´s and put quite some efforts into its renovation and decoration:
The livingroom combined diningroom..
A romantic bedroom..
The house contained a lot of inspiring ideas - this stool had been painted and pasted with lots of old fashioned bookmarks. And then thoroughly vanished..
An intricate antique device for yarn holding on the upper floor..
Kerstin and Nena chats in the cosy attic where the former - and now dead - owner walks at night.. Muhaauhaa..
This old vastepaper basket is handpainted by Kerstin.
Peter preparing the three course lunch in the newly renovated kitchen. Oh the food! Seafood lasagne, beautiful sallads, mushroom toasts, crayfish tails, followed by an exquisite cheese tray and coffe and chocolate "kladdkaka" - sticky cake in the garden..
After enjoying a great spring premiere of outdoor coffee and laughs and lazy conversation, we drove home north by Gotland´s western coast watching the marvellous sun setting in the spring blue sea..(The mighty Baltic is steel grey in winter time.)
