Minerals, fossils and gems

This weekend there was a Mineral, Fossil and Gem Show at Falkängen which Mormor was really keen on visiting so we tagged along.



Falkängen is a small handicraft village consisting of a handful of shops where artisans gather every summer and sell and display their craft; everything from wool, woven, ceramics to glass, textiles, forging etc. It is really pittoresque, and I have many times before found and bought pretty things here.



We didn't quite find the minerals and fossils as fascinating as Mormor and Morfar did, but we had a good look around anyway. I mostly enjoyed the interactions between the passionate mineral/fossil-collectors in the stands..!


And can you believe that we are now about halfway through our summer holidays, and we are all still friends..! (Well, most of the time anyway!)
