Happy Holidays
from Catherine & Lars
Nick, Anna, and Grandfather-to-be...
I surprised my grand niece Signe, "Ziggy," by showing up in Paramaribo, Surinam, when she and "Gunilla" arrived there for a three-day visit.
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 😬

On the 10th of December, Baby Riley arrives in a text-book perfect delivery 🥰
Our ever-alert guard cats, Bowie and Jagger, in front, takes a brief break from their vigil to wish you herring and ansjovies! 😸!
This is "Gunilla," the ship on which students at Öckerö Gymnasieskola do frequent trips during their three years.

Ziggy wanted "real food" after a month of ship fare across the Atlantic, so we sampled "local food!" 🤣
Lars, Riley, and son Lars 🥰
Happy Holidays from us to you! ❤️
