A Summer Abroad

Canada Day!
A picnic on the waterfront

At sunset

The younger set




Bear Lake
Endless hours on the beach . . .

. . . and not just for the kids

Copenhagen, Denmark

Do you have any idea how long I've been waiting to get here??

These are the clothes I wore for three days waiting for our luggage to arrive

Kristiansborg Palace


On the waterfront beside our hotel


An old sailing ship they let me tour while Aaron was at workshops
At the Copenhagen botanical gardens
Doesn't Aaron look European? Everyone seemed surprised that we spoke neither Danish nor Swedish, despite the prevalence of English and the high concentration of international tourists--must be the the German (Aaron) and Swedish (Britt) genes at work!
The gorgeous lake at the center of Ousby


After a concert of Britten's War Requiem at Copenhagen's Vor Frue Kirke




Meanwhile . . .

Addy was too busy snuggling the babies to miss us

My sisters and brother took all the kids to the zoo--a favorite outing they haven't enjoyed since we left Cincinnati
