Max and Lilja's Wild Ride

Here's a recent picture of Max and Lilja riding a toy horse in a department store located in downtown Århus.



They are each wearing recently purchased shoes, since they both wore out the summer-ish shoes we had brought with us from Denmark.

Århus is gearing up for the Christmas season in a big way. (Stores have been putting up Christmas decorations since Halloween.) This Friday, Santa Claus comes to town and all of the stores stay open until Midnight. We will be missing out on those festivities, however, since we'll be celebrating Thanksgiving that evening with four other people. (We are not celebrating Thanksgiving on Thursday, since Danes don't celebrate Thanksgiving and, as such, Thursday is a school night.)

On Sunday, the town's Christmas tree will be lit; We plan on attending this event since our friend Anna is going to be singing in a choir at the ceremony.

Fun Fun Fun!
