My grandfather


This is my grandfather. This picture is taken in 2006 when we were on our first trip to Croatia.
My Grandfather and I have a very close relationship. We greet each other on a special way and sometimes walk off by our selves, talking about everything. My grandfather often tells me stories about his youth and how it was like fleeing to Sweden during the second World War.
At times, I feel sorry for him. I can see how he wishes to be young again and how he often wants to do things that are dangerous.
I love my grandfather and I hope we can drift away on our own boat over and over again.

My grandfather


This is a picture of my grandfather, he is very old. He sits in a wheelchair and he has not been walking since I was a litle girl. He has ten grandchildren and two great-grandchildren and he is a fantastic man. As long as he has is allowed to smoke his pipe, he is happy. This picture was taken in the summer, in my grandparents garden and you can see the strawberrys on the table and strawberrys on his shirt. I love this picture!

This picture reminds me of my grandmother, because i allways used to get Donald Duck magazines from her when i was little.

The Piano


One of the things I do the most when visiting my grandparents, is play the piano. Nobody else in the family owns a piano, and I'm one of the only ones who play. Every time I play my keyboard at home, I think of what a shame it is that I can't play a real piano at my grandparents' place every time I feel like it.
