Another Season Comes to an End

A quick update to let everyone know what were up to: the Vikings lost out of playoffs last Saturday, we are spending the day in Copenhagen on Friday and flying back to Kelowna on Saturday morning. Everything is happening so quickly and mostly out of our control.

The packing is well under way, in the last year we have moved in and out of 3 apartments in 3 different countries. By now you would think I’d be a packing expert, but to be completely honest I’m absolutely terrible! I have little piles laying everywhere around the suitcases, and clothes in every corner. We will know tomorrow if were coming back in the Fall, if we are.. many of my little piles will go into boxesJ Making for a much lighter load home!

I’m looking forward to spending Friday in Copenhagen with my love, a fun way to end our adventures for this season.

I always dread the flight home; fortunately our trip duration is only 15 hours long. We have a 3 hour lay over in Calgary and I’m so extremely excited to get off the plane and see my dear friend Jenna. She was the last person I saw before I left for Sweden, and she’ll be the first one I see when I arrive on Canadian soil! Can’t wait to see her beautiful smiling face.

I hope everyone’s having a fun week, next time I blog I will be home with jet lag!

Trip to Copenhagen, Denmark


It was a spur of the moment decision to go to Copenhagen today and I’m so glad Brenda and I did!  It was a 3 hour train ride from Nybro, including crossing over the famous Oresund Bridge. The bridge connects Sweden and Denmark; it is the longest road and rail bridge in Europe



We took a canal and harbor tour (Kanalrundfart) which was amazing, the best way to sightsee when your limited for time. We saw the famous “Little Mermaid” statue, wandered along Nyhavn (New Harbour) and of course checked out Strøget the number one shopping area in Denmark.
Here are some pictures from our dayJ
