Kunsten at holde sig vågen / The art of staying awake

I går morges landede hun så, niecen, og vi fandt hinanden i lufthavnen efter lidt besvær. Man må jo SLET ikke komme ind hvis man ikke skal flyve, og det gik virkelig op for mig, at hun jo faktisk er voksen nu, for min bøn om at komme ind og vente på min niece på 18 var der ikke meget tilovers for.....
Dagen gik så med at holde hende vågen indtil sengetid, og hun fik bl.a. lov at slå græs!

So yesterday morning she landed, my niece, and we found each other at the airport after a bit of confusion. You are NOT allowed to enter unless you are flying, and I realized that she actually is adult now, since my request for entering and waiting for my 18 year old niece was met with a total lack of understanding......
The day passed with keeping her awake until bedtime, and she got to cut the grass, for instance!

Strømperne blev godkendt og taget i brug. Jeg må lige påpege at hun hev dem lidt ned med vilje. De bliver faktisk ellers siddende oppe......
Da planen var take-away i går aftes, fik hun pizza med salat. Tydeligvis en temmelig dansk specialitet som virkelig blev nydt i fulde drag!
Hun holdt sig vågen til lige før kl. 20, hvilket var godt gået, fordi hun så havde været vågen i 28 timer.

The socks were approved and tried on. I just have to say that she pulled them down a bit herself. They do stay up on the leg otherwise.....
The plan last night was take-away, and she had pizza with sallad. Apparently a very Danish speciality that was enjoyed to the max!
She stayed awake until just before 8 p.m., which was well worked, since she had been awake for 28 hours by then.

I dag startede den tidlige morgen med den fineste dis. Vi skal nyde det forventede solskin med at male skur. Altså - man skal male mens det er tørt, og hun skal jo helst blive her på matriklen (bortset fra at vi kan gå tur hvor der ikke er mennesker. Det er også fint.).
Det er bare med at nyde de her dages solskin inden regnen og kulden vender tilbage!

Today, the early morning started with a slight fog. We will enjoy the expected sunny day by painting the shed. Well - you need to paint when it's dry, and preferably, she should stay her on my ground (apart from when we go for walks were there are no one else, which is also fine.).
I just love these days with sun before the rain and cold returns!
