God Jul

Everything looks a little different with some snow on it! This is a picture from behind the bus stop, in spring it might have some nice flowers, lots of leaves on the trees, but after you have an intense snow storm for a full day and through the night, this is what it looks like! Kinda nice huh? Well as I was walking home from a friends house, I thought it would be a great picture, and reminded me of my dad! & as you can probably tell its still snowing a little! Which means we are defiantly having a white Christmas over here in Sweden! God Jul everybody! (Merry Christmas)

The Gingerbread house my host sister made, along with the advent candles, and the nice background (through the window) A little touch of snow can really light the Christmas spirit! Even if you are 5,000 miles away from home missing your family! For me the snow makes it all worth while! Hopefully when we got up to the North after Christmas for some skiing, I will get to see the Northern lights! Wouldn't that be something?!?
These pictures are from the Christmas decorations in the city, this is 1 of the christmas trees but the main christmas tree is still the best, maybe because it is so huge!
And here is is, the main Christmas tree, located right in front of the Kärnan Castle.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!

GOD JUL!

Copenhagen Denmark

The bridge from Sweden to Denmark, it actually goes under the water too!! It takes like maybe 30/45 minutes to cross this bridge! It is over 13,000 feet long!!
Now in Copenhagen Denmark! This is like the city center clock tower, quite similar to the one in Helsingborg Sweden which is my town!
This is the Queens Castle, their were 3 castles all next to each other, one for the queen, one for the king, and one for the Prince. On this picture there was a flag waving above, that indicated that the queen was home while I took this picture!!! But she was not so nice to invite us in for Fika :( But whenever the flag is up, it means that the Queen/ King/ Prince is home.
The Tivoli, it is one of the World's great amusement parks. During Christmas season (when I went) there was great display of Christmas decorations, and hand made candies!
The Little Mermaid- I didn't know that a Danish man wrote this story. But this statue just had gotten back from China, so we were in great time to see it!
