Halloween

Tivoli here in Copenhagen celebrate Halloween this week. They are open for Halloween one week only, then we have to wait until Christmas to go back :-) ...and summer of course!
They have decorated the gardens so beautifully, they have used more than 21.000 pumpkins in all :-)

Asks favourite was this mill, he loved watching the wings go round and round...
I took some pictures for you....the chinese tower....
....the pirate ship....
....the brewery.....
....and some more pumkins!
The kids liked this pumpkin-man, but when it came time to take a picture, they got bored. LOL!
It was a great day!

Charles has been away at a conference in London all week (he'll be back tonight!), the kids and I have been sick.....and I am soooo behind on my webometrics-paper. I had to call my parents and ask them to come help me out.
They did, thank goodness :-)

    Good to hear that you are better, though and that you had your parents nearby to help out. I hope a day out with lots of fresh air helped, though - thanks for taking us along!

  14. Aren't grandparents wonderful? My mom and in-laws would take my kids any day I needed a break. We are so very blessed!

    You've got to stop sharing pics of where you live, I am wishing I could see that part of the country one day-it's so beautiful. Looks like you all had a fantastic time and don't you just love all the pumpkins everywhere-the colors of fall are amazing!
