Half way to 90!!!!

Last week I turned 45!!!  I am middle aged! I have gray hair!!! I am starting to get aches and pains!!! I´m depressed!!! (well actually I´m not depressed. My life is good and they say you´re only are as old as you feel and I feel about 28 - sometimes!)

So for my birthday Kristian had bought me tickets to go and see "Les Miserable." It was in Århus a town about 3½ hours away, the town where Sara lives. On the day of my birthday (7th May)  we both left work at lunchtime and headed out on our roadtrip to Århus. We both love going on a long drive. Kristian loves to drive and I love to talk to him while he drives. We love our roadtrips and this one was NOT a disappointment. We had a lovely 3½ hour journey to Sara´s place. 

Sara´s Christian cooked us dinner, a delicious chicken curry with rice. Then Kristian and I headed to the theater. I just loved the show! The singing was fantastic. It was all  a bit much for Kristian though. He is not really a musical/theatre person but he sat through a 2½ hour show were all the lines were sung. Just shows me how much he really loves me! 




When we got back from the theater, Sara had made pancakes and hot chocolate. She had decorated the table with sweets, flags and streamers and it was then I got my present from her and Christian. A couple bottles of cola, some chocolates and 2 tickets to the cinema. She knows me well! All things that I love!

We had a cosy evening.


We stayed the night in Århus as we had taken the next day off work. Christian and Sara had done the same. So the next day we headed out together for a day of shopping in Århus. We had a great time! We had a delicious lunch together and then did a bit more shopping. Around 4.30pm Kristian and I said good-bye and got on the road for the journey home. It was so wonderful to be in Århus with them. I really wish we all lived a little closer to each other. 






The drive home was fantastic. The nature and the lighting was so special that we stopped a few times to take pictures. The sky was just soooo beautiful.

Belated happy birthday Laura - and what a lovely way to celebrate - it's one of my favourite musicals. Was it in Danish or English?
