Oh, how fun it would be to travel to Sweden as part of the Summer Bucket List!
That isn't going to happen, though. However, with the *Quirky Summer Bucket List, it is possible to do the next best thing without even boarding a plane! In Chicago, there's a great Swedish restaurant called TRE KRONOR and my sister and I took our Grand-daughters there for Swedish pancakes and lingonberries.
Outdoor eating here even includes a little stuga where we could enjoy those pancakes! (L to R: Ellie, Linnea, Ava, Ingrid) |
Following our meal we took the girls to the SWEDISH AMERICAN MUSEUM on Clark Street in Andersonville. On a summer afternoon, the third floor of the museum was empty so we had the place all to ourselves!
The girls were all outfitted into "work" pinafores - provided at the museum. |
The ticket booth for the boat trip to America is on the left side. Step right up! |
Two examples of houses are available to play in: here Ellie experiences life in the old house in Sweden.
Potatoes and fish? Why, yes, don't mind if I do! |
.My sis and I like to eat together in the new place in America.
The Nelson Sisters with a lot of food to eat! |
Chores galore...cows to milk, chickens to feed, harvest to gather, laundry to hang...
The Anderson Sisters |
Fun? Ya, sure. You betcha! |
