The cutest thing about our neighbourhood is the quaintness of the area. Example: An elderly lady is checking out at the grocery store, she puts her debit card in the machine and then tells the cashier that she forgot her pin code. Cashier prints out a receipt and says, okay, pay next time. Really?? I think, that would never fly in most parts of the world, but in the little town of Ordrup, 10 km north of Copenhagen, it works. When I told Chris about it he said, oh yeah, I've been told to pay next time, when the debit machine was down. Hilarious!
Another funny thing to see is how many people still wear fur coats around here. But when I think about those who wear fur in North America I think of those richie rich types, here, a person wearing a huge expensive fur coat is often seen picking up dog poop and shoveling their drive way. I hate fur, I would never buy it or support it but I guess here it's about practicalities. It's cold and fur is warm. And that's that.
Miles continues to thrill us each day. He explores EVERYTHING! Loves licking the walls these days, the computer is his major attraction, likes to press all the buttons... but still his favorite toy is his sock monkey that Nana Eli made him. He talks to it and smiles each time he sees it. What a funny guy! Our latest pics follow.
