Lucia



Hello! This is Jennifer and Adelisa. Today we saw Lucia in the gymnastic hall. It is actually on Sunday the 13th, but we celebrated it today. The Lucia-procession was very very long. They sang very well. There were very many people there who looked at it. We had to wait a very long time to get in there and get a seat. They had a little speech about Lucia. They sang beautiful. Here are some pictures. .

Hi!

This is Albin and Eric again.
This is Erics soccer training.
Here is a video of me and my team playing. Enjoy!
At winter we play on a gravel field. That's fun, but it hurts if you fall or get tackled by another player.
Eric plays soccer 3 times a week and thinks it's very fun.
There are some other boys in class who plays in the same soccer team.

Kakan<33



















Here is Kakan.
He is six years old. He is my rabbit. Kakan is very sweet. He is white with brown spots. Kakan likes too sit and look out the window. He likes to eat but he doesn't like to cuddle or to be carried around. He just likes to sit in his cage and look around and play with his friends of course. // Freja



Lisa



















Here is Lisa.
She is a nice cat and she is five years old. She is black with white spots. She is my cat.
She is very sweet when she wants to go out and when she is hungry. Then she screams. Lisa likes to play with her friends and to sleep in our couch. She almost sleeps all day. She likes to cuddle sometimes but when you pick her up she wants to go back down. And she loves her best friend Kajsa, who is also a cat.

Autumn




The Swedish autumn
Here are some pictures.
As you see the leaves turns colours to yellow, red and brown. There are many beautiful colours in the autumn.
Here’s a picture of a classic autumn sky! Very grey and cloudy. It’s a bit boring to have this and rain almost every day. And it’s very cold now, it’s like 38 degrees (3°C) just now. Well that’s all.
Greetings from Sweden!
