Christmas eve

Dinner time

Reading stories to "little kids"...

We had a great Christmas eve, though only being the two of us.
we tried to eat a goose and a duck, altogether 7,4 kg, but we didn't manage so we had some left overs the next day.
I got some presents, quite a few books, a sweather, some candy and some games and movies...
Of course i had to much to eat, so don't have to be eating anything for a while...
Christmas eve was the coldest day in the autumn, -31 a frost clear.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

it's -31, sky clear and snow everywhere

the longest day...

Tomorrow is the longest day of the year. from then and hensforward the days get longer and brigther. this is a wonderfull thing. the sun will rise here on the 11th of February...

the last couple of days we have spent repeairing the snow scooters and our snow blower. we have put up some Christmas decorations and are drying the tree, so it can come up in the living-room!

the temperature dropped more than 10 degrees tiday, creating a myst. it looks quite mysterious but beautifull.

Christmas Drop (juledropp)

Wednesday 12th of December we had our anual Christmas drop. we got 2300 kg of goods. eg. food, bewerages, presents, Christmas tree, new beds and spare parts.
here everything went fine, but on Daneborg and Danmarkshavn the lost one bundle each. this was due to a failure on the parachute. therefore some of their things where kind of flat and broken...

it put some pictures on the net, if you would like to have a looksy..

flemming the lemming

it hasn't been snowing for 2 months. then the day before we get our Christmas drop it started snowing and blowing. we will just have to see tomorrow if we get our presents...
we are supposed to get 3 collies in a parachute with a weight of 2300 kg!
stay in chirstmas mood

finished

today I finished the last things with the new room in the tower. after the painting dried, I washed and cleaned everything, put up a lamp and redecorated the room.
it looks very nice now and everything is more practical than before...
here it's dark and cloudy and we are waiting for father christmas who will be here next week...

stormy weather...

for the last 2 days we had bad weather with wind and snow blowing. before the storm everything was covered in a white blnaket, now we see lots of dark spot in the landscape...
but there will still be enough snow to ski on when the weather clears up again!
We just started December month like everyone else, playing Christmas songs and thinking about the Christmas stress you all are having...
cheers
