Day 4 - Vacation and christmas cards!
Today Hanne got up very early to finish her assignment, which had to be turned in at 10am. Lene, Hanne and I went to her school to turn it in. Hanne and I stayed to go to the community church with the rest of the school, while Lene went home. So I got the chance to meet some of Hannes classmates.
When we got home Hannes sister Mette had just arrived from Denmark:-) It was nice seeing her again! - Now the whole Østergaard family is gathered:-)
Later we went to buy christmas cards, and then went home to write them:-)
In the evening we all gathered to play "draw and guess"(very directly translated) - "tegn og gæt". It was a very fun and nice time with the family! - They are real fun, and I enjoy being around them:-)
Wierd/funny things of the day:
1. A guy in the church from the school had to sing with the rest of his class, in the end he had to sing alone: "vi kan ikke vente" - translated: we cannot wait(until christmas) and his expression was so funny because he really hated that he had to do it:-P
2. We were walking near the harbour at a place where they sell freshly caught fish and birds and so on. We walked by a table with some birds and i said " oh look its pingvins" - Hanne started laughing..First of all there are no pingvins in Greenland, second of all pingvins are very large and these birds were absolutely not large...
3. Hanne started a christmas card, with the words: "Very Happy Christmas" - "Mange gange tillykke med julen"
4. In the evening when we played "draw and guess" Hannes mother Ulla had to guess what her husband John was drawning. He drew the frence flag, the eiffel tower and the country seen from a map, and the answer was france, but her guess was toaster:-P
