Sunday. We loaded the kids in the stroller and walked down to Folkets Park. Tipton was much more daring/confident on the playgound this time. (Probably because there weren't a lot of big kids running around.) He climbed almsot to the top of the smaller clmibing tower. From there we walked to Triangeln (a mall) and ate lunch at McDonald's. Then we looked for "playground pants" for Tipton. "Playground pants" (what I call them) are plastic/rubber/nylon type pants that you pull on over your regular pants. That way your 'good' pants don't get wet/muddy/ruined when you play on the playground (because the playground is pretty much always wet.) We found a pair with Spiderman on them and Tipton was thrilled. Then we walked home. Then we drove to Lund. Dave had set up ameeting with the volvo dealer to talk about leasing a car. They had a block table there and the kids were very well behaved. We came back to Malmo and Dave wanted to go to the Telia store. We parked by neat playground. The kids and I hung out there while Dave discovered that Telia is closed on Sundays. From there we drove to Ikea. We dropped Tipton at the play area and Dave, Lilli and I walked around the store. I got plastic bowls and forks/spoons/knives for the kids. Dave got lightbulbs for the light in the living room. It was a very busy day. A good day.

1) There si a 'short cut' through Folkets park to get to the playground in the back
2) Telia is closed on Sundays
3) Ikea stays open until 6:00 on Sundays
4) There is a really neat playground behind the pedestrian mall
5) There is a walking path on Kungsgatan that will take me to Amiralsgatan, and there is acool palyground along the path.
