It started out windy and cold. We went out in the morning with his mum and sister to get some stuff for the garden. When we got home, it even drizzled for a while. It continued to drizzle after a short pause. A nice day to stay indoors, and indoors was where we would be for the rest of the day, I declared.
But when it got closer to 6pm, the weather turned. The rain stopped and the sun came out. Looking out the window, the bushes were relatively still and the leaves of the trees, barely moving. Well, maybe we can go out for our walk now.
Hesitantly, Pete got ready to go out. He was mentally prepared for a day of rest, but to his credit, he walked on and boy, were we rewarded with the best weather since I arrived. It was sunny, not too windy and not too cold. We took our usual route and passed our garden. I know our daily walks have done us good because we were not panting by the time we got to our patch.
As we continued on our walk, the day got even better. It got warmer and brighter and I felt like we could walk on for miles. And so we did. We took a longer route home and passed beautiful trees, houses and even a church. I even spotted a wild rabbit, scrambling into the bushes when it saw us. If only there are more of such days.

Before I end this post, here are pictures of some of the cats in the neighbourhood. The Swedes love dogs. I can always find someone walking their dog when I am outdoors and there are plenty of dog parks and fields for dogs to run around in. I didn't think they love cats as well, but I have been seeing cats in some of their homes. And the cats here are fat and fluffy, I guess to adapt to the cold.
