Nuttet / Cute

I går havde jeg fri. Så der tog jeg selvfølgelig ud og kørte tog. Til Jylland. (For hvordan skal jeg nå at besøge folk når jeg arbejder?)
Det var flot at se sne og is, og f.eks. her ved Vejle Fjord broen kunne man tydeligt se, at Danmark har ligget i dybfryseren en god uges tid!

Yesterday was a day off from work. So of course I went on a train ride. To Jutland. (How on earth can I visit people when I'm working?)
It was quite a sight seeing the ice and snow, for instance here at the Vejle Fjord bridge, where it became very clear how Denmark was in the freezer for a bit more than a week!

Jeg tog op og besøgte min niece og lille baby I, når jeg nu havde muligheden. Hun er en rigtig lille uld-baby, og ved første øjekast så hun sådan her ud. Dejligt sovende, fin og varm. Jeg er ikke den eneste der strikker til hende - køredragten har hendes farmor strikket, og den er virkelig bare genial. Hendes moster har strikket tæppe, som også bliver flittigt anvendt, og desuden havde hun de fineste små norske vanter fra hendes mors veninde.

I went to visit my niece and little baby I, since I had the possibility. She is a real wool-baby, and when I first saw her, she looked like this. Sleeping soundly, nicely and warm. I am not the only one knitting for her - her grandmother knit the sleeping sack, and it is just a stroke of genius. 
Her aunt knit the blanket, which is used all the time, and furthermore, she had the prettiest little Norwegian mittens, knit by her mother's friend.

Hun er bare ekstremt nuttet, det barn. (Det trak selvfølgelig ikke ned at hun havde den kjole på jeg har strikket.) Det var så hyggeligt at være sammen med hele familien, og jeg synes faktisk efterhånden jeg er god til at køre tog. Strikketøj, lydbog og endda lidt arbejde, og så går togturen ret nemt. (Men de næste dage skal jeg nu ikke køre SÅ meget tog.)

She is extremely cute, this baby. (Of course she also got extra points from wearing the dress I knit for her.) I loved spending the day with the family, and I do think I've become quite good at train rides. My knitting, an audio book and even a bit of work, and then the train ride is a child's game. (But these next days, I don't plan for THAT many hours on a train.)
