Good evening all. It’s 11pm here are we’re just back from a jazz concert. American musician Curtis Stigers was performing in our town... someone reasonably famous in Tonbridge for the first time ever!

I’ve caught up, but must turn in for the night now.

The clocks go back an hour for us tonight so, in theory, we get a lie in tomorrow.

I survived Tivoli, but only just.

Here’s a view of the Copenhagen city council building from the gardens:

IMG_1540715038.605845.jpg

Tivoli Gardens (or simply Tivoli) is an amusement park and pleasure garden in Copenhagen, Denmark. The park opened on 15 August 1843 and is the second-oldest operating amusement park in the world, after Dyrehavsbakken in nearby Klampenborg, also in Denmark.

It is the second-most popular seasonal amusement park in the world, and the fifth most-visited theme park in Europe, behind Disneyland Park, Europa-Park, Walt Disney Studios Park and Efteling. (From Wikipedia)

Halloween season is on now. Then they’ll take a break to set up for Christmas season. Tivoli is in hiatus in winter, with the exception of two weeks for school winter holidays.

One of the rides we took was a Flying Trunk through H.C. Andersen’s fairytales. You could do the ride in Danish or English.

That’s it from me before we have to go to today’s kiddie party. [emoji85] I’ll catch up with you all later.

Good morning all. In an instant the hail has passed and the sun emerged. It’s still only 3C [emoji300]️ Brrrrrrr!

JoesDad and I are heading up to London for a “Hidden London” tour of Euston Tunnels - a long disused part of the Underground network
In other words you are off on your adventures again. Enjoy it.

That is by far the coolest pumpkin patch I’ve ever seen. And I would have picked Hans Christian as well... how Neat!!!

You look gorgeous. And have a very good looking family.

Thank you Carol.. they represent me well. It’s hard watching my daughter change so fast now ... I’m a wonderful mother of children but i struggle with the balance of parenting and friendship at her age. I don’t want to let go of my baby!!!

Good morning all! Most of you are well into your day but it’s only 7:35 am here. It’s still pretty late for me to be lazing around though. I’m going to enjoy a book for a little while and then go to church. Back home to spend the remainder of a beautiful day outside . Think my dads coming for a visit as well.. yay!!! Read y’all later & hope every one enjoys their day.
