Ellie has really been missing her pets.  She can’t wait to see Nieko, Maggie, and Deadwood at Christmas.  So she was super excited about getting her fish tank all set up.  Today was the day we were going to pick out her new fish.  We met Daddy at T-Centralen.  We rode in on the green line, he came in the blue line and we headed out on the red line.  What fun trying to find him at the busiest station at the busiest time of day.  Thank goodness for cell phones.  After meeting up we headed to the mall.  We had pizza at the Italian restaurant in the mall and made a quick stop by the toy store so Ellie could show Daddy the pram she wanted for Christmas. 

Then it was on to the pet store.  The sales associate was so helpful.  Ellie had a choice between fighting fish (beta’s) and goldfish because her tank is unheated.  She chose an all gold goldfish and one with a black fin.  She named them Funguin and baby.  We left the store right at 7pm, closing time.  We still haven’t gotten use to the store hours here is Sweden, opening late and closing early compared to the US.  When does everyone get their shopping done?  Back at home Ellie helped put her fish in the tank, put in the live plant, and gave her fish their first meal.
