A Day Exploring and Hiking the land of Gotland's Troll and Fairy homes!!

Today was a much slower paced day in Visby Gotland.   

 The Island Gotland!! Our View :)
      My family and I  took a tour of the area we are staying in and  the surroundings.  The land is gorgeous with poppy flowers that make you wish you could leap over them, and tiny little thistle flowers  where one could hope  to spot  a fairy, or  a troll.

The Baltic Sea is also fantastic.  The sunlight shines down on it,  and all day it looks like the sea is sparkling and  the rocks near the shore are homes to seagulls, swans, and possibly some mermaids.. you never know...

Our own backyard is a Fairy Palace in itself,  with many daisies, tree houses, and a birdcage that is actually  a swing!
Swans!!











Fairy Home!


On the rocky beach,  we found  a crab shell,   a fossil that looked like it was part of a horn at one point. A troll horn, that is.

 For the first time I experienced wild swans! They were am
azing,  a mother swan and  a baby swan, just minding their own business.

Inside our cabin is more like the inside of a nature palace.

It has smooth wooden floors,tables, and an outside deck to set on and to enjoy both the sunshine our beautiful Nature filled view.

The favorite room of everybody's seems to be the bathroom. It is an almost old style Downtown Abbey's  bathroom.
It has a beautiful tube,  a shower, and it too has big bay windows that look over the backyard.
