The Eve before the Christmas Eve. If I had been home, today would be filled with traditions. This day is really a busy day, even though I always try to get things done before this day. It's always a lot of presents which need to be wrapped and delivered, food to be cooked, Christmas stockings to be made, and the sauerkraut to be made, but this year no preparations at all. A bit weird, yes. We have been to Madurodam, a miniature Holland. We ate dinner 40 floors up with a great view over Den Haag. Of knitting I finished a pair of socks in Online 6 thread sock yarn. Knitted using needles 3,25 mm and size 37. Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, but that is not a special day here, so we have Christmas dinner the 25th. Enjoy the Eve before the Christmas Eve everyone!

23. December
Dagen før dagen. Hadde jeg vært hjemme, hadde dagen vært full av tradisjoner. Egentlig er lillejulaften en litt travel dag, enda så godt jeg alltid prøver å få ting ferdig før lillejulaften. Det er alltid en haug med pakker som skal pakkes inn og leveres, mat som skal gjøres klart, julestrømper skal lages, surkålen skal ikke kokes før lillejulaften, men i år var det ingen juleforberedelser i det hele tatt. Litt rart, ja. Vi har i stedet nytt dagen i Madurodam, et lite miniatyr-Nederland. I tillegg har vi spist middag 41 etasjer oppe med god utsikt over hele Den Haag. Av strikking har jeg blitt ferdig med et par sokker i Online 6-trådssokkegarn. Strikket på pinne 3,25 mm og str. 37. I morgen er det julaften, men det feires ikke spesielt her, så her blir det julemiddag 25. desember mot normalt. Kos dere med Greven og grevinnen, Grim og Gru, Love Actually og alt som hører lillejulaften til!

Har hatt mine juler hjemmefra jeg også og det er litt rart. Men så lenge man er innstilt på at det skal være sånn, så går det bra. Ønsker deg noen fine juledager i Nederland 😊
