23rd June 2008 - Tresco

Found GCF3A7 - Pipers Treasure Scilly Isles but not GCJXY3 - Tresco Trail as the latter is a multicache and I didn't have the clues printout.

24th June 2008 - St. Agnes

Didn't find either of GCN966 - The Most Southerly Cache in the UK (again a multicache where I didn't have the clues) or GC137RV - Gugh cache - simply didn't find that one.

2nd July 2008 - Bryher

Found both GC1B1D - Hell Bay and GCNC24 - Birdman's Cottage. Both have fantastic views - Birdman's Cottage especially.

We bought the xmas tree inside today. Not time to decorate it yet - but its in the house. Elizabeth thinks it odd that there is a tree in the house.

Sangefjellet

A trip up to Sangefjellet (up to the radio mast on Sangenuten although only Rolf jr made it to the very top, then round the back of Veslesanget and down to Åsgaard).

Rod and Astrid took Elizabeth on a pram trip to the open air cathedral and back.

Coffee round a camp fire

The sun returned today. We took a trip (Rolf, Elin, Rod, Astrid, Chris, Elizabeth, John, Jan) along the valley and found a nice place to sit. Collected some wood, and lit a camp fire where Rolf brewed coffee.

Elizabeth came on the trip - her first time out with us on ski's, her first time travelling in a "pulk" (a small sledge for small children that an adult pulls on a harness), and Chris' first time pulling one.

When we got back to the hut Elizabeth played with the snow and her bucket and spade before Farmor and Farfar built her a slide in the snow. After some sliding (and sledging) farfar built a snowman.

More snow

Not so good weather today - more snow. Hopefully it will be better tomorrow.

Elizabeth received a Po to go with Tinky-Winky, Dipsy and La-La from Grandpa.

Sun comes back again. Catherine arrives.

Elizabeth got a La-La from Grandpa to go with Tinky-Winky and Dipsy.

Rod, Rolf, Rolf (jr), John and Chris took a ski-trip to the ski-track crossroads (just over 5 km from the hut). Elin met the group on the way back and she and Rolf then headed to the crossroads while the others headed home.
Rolf (jr) and Chris each took a short trip up on Sangefjell during the afternoon.

Rolf (jr) collected Catherine in the evening - bringing the number of people in the hut up to 8.

A trip to Ål

Rod, Rolf and Chris took a trip to Ål in the morning. Shopping and a visit to the Kulturhuset.

Snow came again during the afternoon, evening.

Elizabeth wanted to play outside - and so had a short time with her bucket and spade (see pics) before a short trip in her pram.
