  1. Looks like your Christmas must have been a lot of fun :) I'm suprised there were so many of you, I'm used to having a very quiet Christmas Eve just with my parents, it's never occurred to me it could be this "big"

  4. Nice to see the pics of inside the library!

    Lovely tinsel too Amel.. maybe you could start a new trend in Sodankylän fashion! Let's be honest - some could do with jazzing up! :D Very Zsa Zsa Gabor - esque!

    Lovely and lush. My cats would LOVE it.. (to eat and attack it that is!) Blue was all the rage in the UK for Christmas lights and decoration - apparently this year and last.

  6. Bitter Chocolate: So many of us? You should see my parents and the relatives when they have a family gathering, then you'll know that the amount of people in the pics is NOTHING compared to what I used to have back in Indo he he he...

  8. I love seeing other people's Christmas photos/ :-) Your in-laws look nice. THe house is so different from houses here, or those in Africa. I love seeing things like that.

    What a pretty library. Funny enough it reminds me a bit of the library I worked in South Africa. I never had your language problem, but the library I worked in was bilingual (English Afrikaans) and my Afrikaans was poor. I hated answering the phones. Talking to real people I could get by with smiles, guessing, but on a phone... urgh! :-X

    I once had this really funny conversation with an Afrikaans guy on the phone. He'd called the wrong number, because the town council sent all calls to the library after hours. The council was closed - lunch time. I couldn't think of any Afrikaans word to explain lunch, food, eat, closed... it was stressful, but really hilarious as I tried to tell him to phone later.

  9. Febri: Yup, it was a rather noisy one too hi hi hi...

    Michelle: Yep, my in-laws are SO loveable he he he...I also love seeing different types of houses he he he...

    I KNOW EXACTLY what you mean by the phone talk. I also MUCH prefer talking face-to-face than talking on the phone, since when you're on the phone, you can't use body language and sometimes the line isn't too clear...uuugghhh...scarrryyy he he he...

    THANKS for sharing that story with that Afrikaans guy hi hi hi hi...I can totally relate to that. :-))))
