A Cold (and Hot) Day - Evonne

Starting off the day, Lova and I went to Hellasgården, a place where you can jump into the ice cold lake. We carpooled with Liana and Tyra and met up there with a couple of other friends and classmates and all did it together.

Before lunch, we also went on a walk and it was really pretty because there was an outdoor gym, which was fun to play on, and crisp snow on the ground, which was also fun to walk in. We also went to a hill that was on an island in Sweden and it showcased the city at a different perspective, and it was a spectacular view.

After lunch, we met up again with more classmates and played laser tag at the Mall of Scandinavia, and that was very fun, yet tiring and hot. Ending the day, we went to go eat dinner at a family friend’s house, and it was very nice meeting her.

This weekend I learned many new things, including that the buildings in Sweden are all carefully planned out. Like the parking lots have all these lights that are green and turn red when somebody takes the spot. I think this is extremely smart since most parking lots in Hawaii don’t have this, so everybody ends up going through every lane until they find a spot. There is a lot we can learn from our friends in Sweden!
