Island Storm
The wind is howling and the stormy seas are rought. I'm concerned the glass windows are going to implode. I have never experienced such a storm. This morning I woke up to one bin rolling in the driveway, and the other toppled over in the garden. Trash everywhere! Thank god I was up at 7am to clean it up. My neighbour, Christina, peeking out the window. Oh dear!
Today is a big day because I planned to see my Mum. I haven't seen her in years. After a difficult past, I decided to put the past behind me and open my heart again. I was worried about driving across the bridge in case the car blew off haha I was determined to meet her so I made it to the mainland and drove south towards Särö. Another island on the west coast of Sweden. This is a very special place because it's where I grew up as a child. I was living in a cute little house on an inlet with Mum and Dad.
On the drive down, I spotted some beautiful horses. The landscape is very different from the island. Less rock, more your stereotypical Sweden landscape with fir trees and fjords.
Here come some pictures of the storm and my drive south.
