I surprised my grand niece Signe, "Ziggy," by showing up in Paramaribo, Surinam, when she and "Gunilla" arrived there for a three-day visit.
Happy Holidays from us to you! ❤️
Happy Thanksgiving Anna, Riley, and Nick!

Ziggy wanted "real food" after a month of ship fare across the Atlantic, so we sampled "local food!" 🤣
Catherine planned to retire in 2025, so in November '24, we downsized to one car, returning this leased fun-machine. She then accepted an offer to work for another year... I have been sans auto since and really miss this beauty 😬
Lars, Riley, and son Lars 🥰
