Mosquito bite?

Before we left Åland yesterday Marlee got, what we thought was, a mosquito bite on his forehead, above his right eyebrow. First it looked just like a mosquito bite but then it started to swell. It kept swelling all evening and continued today. Kathy and I went down town Stockholm today and finally decided to go to the doctor. Luckily we found one that was open and Marlee got some cortison to drink. After waiting one hour the swelling was still as bad, but at least it did not get worse. The doctor gave us some other medicin too and he is supposed to take them both until the swelling is better. Marlee does not seem bothered by it though, he just looks a little funny, like a cartoon copy of himself with a big forehead and nose and deep eyes :-)

Well, Kathy and I got some good food shopping done on "Söder" while "the old boys" mowed the lawn and went fishing.


Breakfast time. You can see that the left eye is smaller than the
right eye and the bridge of the nose (näsrygg) is wider
than normal.

The trip back home yesterday was very nice. The sun was pretty warm and they played music in a few different places at the boat that we enjoyed.
