We’re back in the city, but I already want to go back outside and spend another night in the tent with that little wild child. I really love laying under the tent roof, listening to raindrops falling, the birdsong, the waves nearby, and the rustling of the wind in the trees. I love hot tent camping, and the large canvas tipi, but it is really cozy in a smaller backpacking tent like this.

This is where we woke up this morning. It started raining when during the evening, but by then we where snuggled up inside the tent. We had a good nights sleep, but the winds picked up during the night, and the temps dropped during the morning.
It was an icy cold morning, and C got cold, despite several layers. We had a strong head winds on our way back, and I decided to get to shore earlier, and walk the last stretch to the car.
Despite the cold windy ending, we had a great little trip. Can’t wait for warmer weather though, when it’s even more pleasing to just hang out in the hammock all day.

Tonight’s camp at Tiveden. There are only two places you’re allowed to camp. It was less than a km walk, but lugging the tipi and a bag of firewood in each hand, and the stove on my back made me remember why I pack lightweight when backpacking. Once the camp was up though I really enjoyed the lovely warm tipi.
There wasn’t a cloud in the sky last night, and it was one of the best star gazing nights I’ve had. The lake was like a mirror, and the stars reflected in the dark water. I cooled down from the warmth of the tipi and stood for 15 min in just long johns and a t-shirt and enjoyed the silence and the vastness of the sky.

This morning a thin layer of ice had formed on the lake, and as we where packing up the wind stated shoving in in against the shore, crumbling the ice sheet against it.

Good morning. It’s a windy cold morning to wake up to, but we both slept good. The Exped UL Synmat Duo LW was one of the best purchases I’ve done for camping with a kid. It truly did wonders for my sleep. C always crawled up on my narrow sleeping pad in the middle of the night, and now that we have a large 200x130cm sleeping pad she sleeps a lot better, and so do I.
We’ve had a breakfast of fried bread, a few different cheeses and salamis. Now we’ll start to pack up soon, and explore the forest while the stove cools down.

Me and C are at Stora Mosse National Park for an overnight trip. It’s nigh on impossible to get C to wear anything but dresses though, so her outdoor wear is a summer dress with unicorns. At least she wore the rain boots 😅. It’s nice out here, and I think summer makes it’s last push this weekend. It’s almost 20° C, and not a cloud in the sky, but the cold nights before have decimated the bugs. Tonight I’ll try the Exped duomat LW for the first time. C always crawls up on my HL mat anyways, so this will probably be more comfortable.
