recap

a computer post!  (i.e. not a phone post!)  but not from the new house either.  yes, the internet company pushed the magic button and it all turned on without a hitch, but that was sometime yesterday when we were in copenhagen, and then late last night we scurried around a bit after getting home to get things ready for today when we left for sweden.  and so now here i am posting from sweden.  the north sea side of things.  you've seen the baltic... we've seen the baltic.  it's time now for the other sea shared with our northeastern neighbor.

but bear with me, as it is late and i am in a dark room with three sleepers... i think i will show you some of the last few days (weeks?) in pictures...

some large, some small, because of a camera setting misshap.

in roughly chronological order...

first, a quick goodbye to the old house... farewell.


next, an official one and a half year old...


legos before school...


picking cherries after danish lessons...


a couple more views of the new place.  our room...




lines...


guest room.  a keen eye will spot some similarities... actually, it would take a keener eye to spot the differences between rooms...


the small-cousins-lined-up-in-a-row-according-to-height shot... (at lejre)



the napping-in-the-wagon shot...


family...


one up, one down...


two up, none down...


canopy...


at lejre...




power washing the house...


and... taking advantage of being in charge of the ultimate in water squirting capabilities...


in copenhagen...
city hall...


canal tour...






i like this next one only because of what it implies william is about to say, and henry looks like he might climb out of the boat, and i look resigned to all of it...






back on dry land...


governance-ing here...


library fountain...


tivoli...






in sweden...



398 cyclers by the time i passed by at 3:00 today...


drip castles and moats at the north sea...










and a waking baby means i need to end this post now.  more from sweden tomorrow.  goodnight!

Yeah! You are back! Also, you must photoshop little Albie into the wagon (or teleport us there to visit). Have fun in Sweden! Hi to everyone.--Auntie Tee

At last! And, as always, you do not disappoint!

So now you have three Scandinavian (looking) boys with you. Do people approach you in Swedish?

(Let me know if you need contact info in Stockholm, should some crisis - like a child in the North Sea - emerge.)

Auntie T-- maybe you will come for a visit one of these days! Then we can rent a wagon and snap a photo!

Nina-- thank you as always for the kind comments! People approached us in Swedish as often as they approach us in Danish-- which is about 99% of the time-- unless they hear us speaking English first, and then it's about 1% of the time. Fortunately, we were crisis-free, but thank you!
