The shooting water at Sesame Street Beach along with the pirate ship rank high on Joakie's list of top attractions at Sea World. Dolphins and such would be a bit further down on the list.

Trick or treats

Joakim joined a few of the neighbouring kids for some 'trick or treats' ('bus eller godis') on Halloween. It was a cold and wet afternoon/evening but Joakim, the little ghost, wasn't to give up before he had visited what felt like every single house in the village with a Jacko lantern on the doorstep.

The monster in the middle of the first picture was freaking him out a bit which is why the dummy came to use.

Farmor visiting

Farmor came for a visit to drop of a present for the newborn. Little no-name got some clothes with Bamse (the bear) on. Of course Joakie also scored something. He got a pull carriage with square blocks -lots of fun. By the way, notice Joakim´s new haircut! He was a a really good boy at the hairdresser on Sunday sitting still for nearly 20 minutes. Am still amazed.

Train ride

After a long summer/autumn of construction train services finally re-commenced at Rydbo on the weekend. The event was celebrated on Sunday with old trains from the beginning of last century operating the line. Great fun thought Joakie.

Here he is singing a tribute to dad ('pappa') on the return trip (though this time on a modern train).
