Day 5 - More cleaning and christmas cards!


We started the day christmas shopping in Nuuk. Afterward we were supposed to use the day making cookies, baking, and just relax with the family. But when you are a missionary things dont always go as planned:-)

We went to clean and empty an appartment here in Nuuk for a lady. Her mother lived in the appartment and had just died. She had travelled from Denmark, with her three children and her husband. Her husband had been out drinking all night, so he was sleeping when we arrived...Let's just say that she has not had the most easy life!!

We cleaned for about 3 hours, and thenwent home to eat the most delicious dinner! - We got musk ox. The first time I have ever tasted that, and wow it was good! - I would gain so much weight if I lived here, their food are so great:-)

It is such a great experience to see how this family serves God! - They live in the church, and set themselves aside everytime anybody needs help, I really admire and respect their work here!

We spend some of the evening writing more christmas cards - not done yet though:-P

Hanne driving:-P


Weird/fun thing of the day:
Hanne was driving, and suddenly they could hear sirens. Mette sitting beside her encouraged Hanne to pull over because they thought it was an ambulance, that needed to pass. But it didnt pass...They found out that it was the police who wanted to pull over their car! - Hanne was driving to slow:-P(she just got her drivers license a month ago, which amused the policeman)
