2008 in review - Part 3

Here comes part 3 of our year in review.

July:

The kids went horseback riding for the first time in Brunei, at the Royal stables at Jerudong Park. It was a hit:



Lucas finished school in the beginning of July with a big Kindy party:



We finally moved out of Rimba (after 11 1/2 months!) and into our new house, where we are very happy:



And then we were off on holiday, a long one - first we went to the UK, to see our good friends there, Jason, Maki & Wataru; Anna, David & Cameron; Chris, Michelle, Griffin & Hugo and Andrew, James & Thomas:





And then we were off to Denmark, to see both Danish and Swedish friends (too many to mention, sorry). We did so many nice things, went to Tivoli, Nyhavn, Legoland, Ströget, the beach, had bbqs etc:















We also went a few days to Jylland, and saw our friends the Petersens there in their new house; and also my friend Kamilla who had recently moved over there too:





August:

In August we left Denmark for Sweden, and had a nice time with Mormor and Morfar. Had crayfish party with the family, and went to Skara Sommarland. First time for Nathan and Linnea:





When Nathan left, I went to Stockholm to hang out with my girlfriends for a weekend:



Then Mormor and Morfar took the kids and me to Karlstad, to surprise visit my friend Linda and see her new baby:



And then we went from there to Astrid Lindgrens Värld in Småland - a superb day the kids still talk about!



Back home it was time for the boat to go on it's "maiden" voyage:



And back in Brunei again, both kids started school, Lucas in Reception and Linnea in Nursery:



September:

In September we celebrated the Chinese Moon Cake Festival at school:



Lucas started doing an after-school-activity, Bugs & Microscopes:



We were all out on the boat for the first time:



We celebrated Nathan's 35th birthday:



Anna and I did a presentation at a Montessori school, about Sweden:
