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.

Have a beautiful day with your daddy.

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!!!

Your daughter looks a lot like you. Soon she will be a good "girlfriend" for you. This mother / daughter relationship is so wonderful. I had it with my mother and I am still missing that and missing my mother so much.

You are beautiful Heather ! Looking so good in your dress and dancing with your son.

Thank you Sabine! Sweet of you to say! My son Played so hard that he is still sleeping this morning! Such a peaceful change [emoji16]

Your daughter looks a lot like you. Soon she will be a good "girlfriend" for you. This mother / daughter relationship is so wonderful. I had it with my mother and I am still missing that and missing my mother so much.

I understand! I’m sure you have many warm memories that honor her!

Here in London, the weather has dried out and warmed up a tidge.

Our tour was of disused tunnels in the underground train system below Euston station.

It was fascinating historically as these Hidden London tours have proved to be.

The old tunnels include a ticket office deep underground as the various lines belonged to separate companies 100 years ago. And the posters on the wall are a 1960s time capsule.

And in Trafalgar Square there’s a Diwali (Hindu) celebration going on. The food smelt amazing, but we had already eaten Chinese dim sum

I survived Tivoli, but only just.

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

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.

I think we all have that problem when it comes to our older kids.

Interesting views and pics. Looks like a journey to the past with all these old posters. I think it is a little adventure to walk through these tunnels.

Let`s ask Lena but I think it works.
@Kristoff

Answered above, sort of. And I think Mark answered it below. And the submissions are closed anyway. Woohoo! We won’t need to worry about megapixels OR megabytes for a whole year!

I have no clue.

That’s Nyhavn in Copenhagen, one of the iconic places in town.
