Resyme

It has been an intresting start on the autumn season, and when I think about it, lots of things have happened, as opposed to me spending the season just wanting to hybernate. For three weeks we looked after The Dogs.

It became the most normal thing to yell "Do not eat that poop!" at six in the morning. Either Freya did not poop during the time due to stress, or someone was having late night snacks..After peeing out the kitchen floor of course. We did not have this problem last time they were here, but since there are new rules, such as not alowing them to sleep in the bed with us, (that is they sleep while we try to find room for us selves without much sucsess) Softy is on a protest campaign, dooing the dirty every single night except the one night she slept with me on the sofa. 

I have started to take my drivers lisence, read throught the book, (no book more boring) and I will start to do tests on monday. Yikes! (I am a bit of a Scooby Doo. Scared of the silliest things and fond of food..)

And I was a weekend in Berlin. Glorious. My only bummer was that I forgot to take the camara with me when I went to the Botanical Garden, and cannot show you those beautiful Dahlias. I will definitivly return. There was lots of stuff I did not do and see, and now I know several cool second hand shops, and the xmas store and the chocolate heaven, and the best place to stay..

Berlin

For my birthday, my boyfriend gave me a surprise trip to Berlin. I love that city. It is glourious. And it has passed so much extreme drama/tragedy the last 70 years.. Sadly, today I am not feeling very writerish, so umh, I just called in to say hi, and promise pics and words will come up at a later time.

Nepal part three

The Bell is in the house! Well, it is in the attic, but we have it. Is it not pretty?

Nepal, part deux

It is morning (somwhere it is morning right, so not tecnically untrue..) and I am sans Bell. Yesterday turned into quite the adventure. So we got to the staff entrance at 2300 as accorded on the telephone. No one. I wait 20 min. I call. "They will be there in twenty minutes okay!" It is dark, windy and cold.

Turns out, we have to give over the car to someone from the expo, since one cannot get in without accreditation. they take the car, It is going to be a minute. We wait with the man from the nepal pavillion. In conversation he let us know that the expo office have decided that no items should leave the area between the 1 and the 15 of september.

Eh? Why are we here then??

So at 0040 we get the car back. The man had loaded the bell in, so at least there is space, but at a security checkpoint they told him to go back and unload the car please. (the expo is guarded like a fortress.)

????

We will try again next week. With more clothes on. And maybe a termos with something hot in and a chair and a picknick basket..

Nepal

To night I am going to by a ceremonial bell from Nepal. Jupp. You heard right. (Or read in this case) A big 100 kg bell with carmed framework from the himalaya mountains. I will post pictures when we have it at home. The paying is turning into a problem though. Because of safety reasons, I can only take out something like 1000 € per 4 days, and the bell costs about the double. Boyfriend is going to help, so finally we will have the cash, but it is really annoying. I have been taking out money in the minibanks feeling as if the money in my bag was calling out, making signals to everyone, much like a passenger on his first cruise, standing on deck as the boat leaves the port. The relief of arriving home, unrobbed..

Anyway, don´t they have banks in Nepal? Umh. Maybe not. That is, I am sure they have in the larger cities, the ones you never see on discovery, since then you only see the final stages of the climbing of some mountain, I mean, they must have, cause there are many tourists. Anyway, this would all have been so much easier if I could just have transferred the money to an account.

Sight.

And the bell is not even mine. It is one of my father´s many "caprichos". I do not know how to say it in english. And I cannot be bothered to look up the word in a dictionary either.

Anyway, I´ll post some pictures when I have them!

Ups.

Bugger.

I just destroyed the fridge. And it is saturday so no bying new anything until monday, and that means not getting anything new until later next week.
