To all a very merry Christmas!

Chiquita and I wish you all a very merry Christmas. Today we are celebrating a Swedish Christmas and tomorrow an English. Chiquitas sister Suzana, her man Dan and their Jack are here to celebrate with us together with my mother, my sister Anneli, her man Christian and their Vincent. Chiquitas younger sister Dominique is also coming to celebrate Christmas which means we’ll be a whole bunch of people in our little flat. Very, very nice.

Love to you all!

How to decorate a Christmas tree

Yesterday we were in proper Christmas mode. We drove all around town, fetching Chiquita’s Christmas present from her work, picking up a Christmas tree foot (don’t know if that’s the proper English word for it but I guess you understand what it means) at Chiquita’s parents house, then we drove to my father to give them a small Christmas present and have some cake (we got home made egg nog), and then back to our place to buy a Christmas tree.

And what a lovely tree we got! We decorated it with our newly bought decorations from Ikea, they all go in the colour of dark purple. The tree looks really nice, but unfortunately when I woke up this morning the lights doesn’t work so I have to go and buy some new ones.

Merry Christmas everyone!

I am the godfather

Well, I’m a godfather anyway. I’m Vincent’s godfather. He was christened to Vincent Hugo this Saturday at Vasakyrkan in Gothenburg. He was very calm the entire time and didn’t make a sound really. Leah was also nice and quiet, all apart from a wonderful giggle in the middle of the ceremony. Lovisa, Christian’s cousin, is Vincent’s godmother.

I love you Vincent! 🙂

It’s not really a budget trip

Chiquita “doesn’t have time” to post information here so instead I’m doing the posting of the hotels Chiquita have booked in Bangkok and Singapore. Chiquita is very thorough and picky and booking these hotels took a couple of weeks of searching and comtemplating.

Finally she settled with The Imperial Queen’s Park Hotel for our first night when we arrive in Bangkok, Rembrandt Bangkok Hotel for the last night in Bangkok efter returning from Koh Samet, and Parkroyal on Kitchener Road for our stay in Singapore. All these hotels look very nice and we think they are located in good areas close to everything.

Initially we were not going to book a hotel for our stay on Koh Samet but now we are thinking about it. We have not yet decided.
