What Cheered You Up Today?

Went to Tivoli in Copenhagen last night with Jørn.
Had a wonderful day and evening, the sun shone, there weren't an awful lot of people in there, and according to Jørn, the one-litre beer that he got at the Tivoli Biergarten was excellent; so was the wienerschnitzel at Færgekroen (The Ferry Inn) that he had, and my filet of fish was the best that I've ever had, with fresh boiled new tiny potatoes, parsley sauce, veggies and a Fanta. Yum! Afterwards: Coffee with cake *hic*, and then a slow walk in the old garden.
When we had had enough of that, we tried out Odin Expressen, a tiny but very...shall we call it: efficient? ...rollercoaster, in order to shake the dinner back in place. Tried a few other things, and ended up just sitting in one of the most beautiful, quiet corner of the garden, chatting quietly.
Finished off with swinging to the Tivoli Big Band and their Glenn Miller/Frank Sinatra songs, then it was time for fireworks above the old concert hall, and the laser show at the Tivoli lake.
Wonderful day - love it!

Brother got to come home today!! Doctor said he is going along faster than expected. He's not happy as he has to wear a vest to insure the 6 ribs taken out grow back correctly....6months he's wearing it.

He broke his ribs in such away that they grew outwards and he had a big bump on his chest that could've lead to complications further in his life so its good they got taken out now.
 
I hope your bro gets well ASAP, Harrison, and that he'll have a speedy and good recovery.

My good things for today?

First I got this little gift in the mail today, from friend Laila, who went to London last week and visited - among other things - The Imperial War Museum. Lucky her!
She spotted this little Spit, and immediately thought: "Maria!" *mutters*...I wonder why... And so she bought it for me, and I am very happy about it.
Firstly, because she was sweet and considerate enough to bother buying the little Spit for me, and second, because she's the sweetest, most considerate and kind friend one could have.



Second good thing today:
Spending the evening in Kulhuse with Jørn, watching the most amazing sunset, swimming, drinking evening coffee and generally enjoying the summer evening tremendously.
 
That's an awesome pin, BB.

UH-1 Iroquois buzzed my house at a very low altitude. He was flying so darn low that his rotors might have barely scraped the leaves of a large sampaloc tree outside.

But my darn camera didn't have enough space and he just flew on by. Darn that camera.

Eeerrmmmm.....

What was it again now.......

Eeeeh........

Bugger.....

Aaaah, right!

I'm off for the rest of the week! And I plan to do feck all, well.....a bit of modelling of couse!
 
Just heard the Vulcan will be at my local airshow. I'm now praying for good weather next Wednesday.
Last year there were puddles six inches deep outside the hangers and I couldn't have got any wetter jumping into a swimming pool.
 
My next door neighbour gave us a nice bottle of wine today in thanks for me requesting she move her car when high winds looked like they were going to bring our tree down. The tree did start to fall but was propped up by another tree in her yard until the emergency services cut it down.
 
Motorcycle ride with biker buddy Jørn to Kulhuse. Wonderfully cool evening after a long hot humid day.

And guys?
Please keep your fingers crossed for me on friday morning.
I've got a job interview that I'm going to, I'm s'posed to be there at 10 o'clock, and I'm hoping for the best.
I talked with the manager the other day, and he said that he thought that my application and CV looked exciting, and that he was looking forward to meet me.
There's more positive stuff:
I've worked at the place for three years some years ago, so I know the place and I know the people in there, minus the new manager, and he saw that as something very positive that I knew the place.
