Today the family went to Åbergs Museum, about 45 minutes from our house, northwest of Stockholm.

Lasse Åberg is a well known actor, writer, director, artist and collector of all things Mickey Mouse. Part of the museum was given to this collection, whilst another part has been transformed into a jungle-themed adventure room for children (being based on one of his children’s TV programs, Trazan and Banarne.

Overall it was a nice afternoon out, and this is the first proper car adventure we’ve had since bringing our new car, a Volvo 740, back from the north at Christmas. I’m a little bit nervous about driving any distance, as it’s an old car with a dud battery; however, our (yet to be named) transport behaved itself very nicely, and I’m really looking forward to better weather, when we can start to use the car to its fullest.
