Summervacation part 1

We spend our two week long summer vacation at the North Sea. Our destination was a farm near Husum, which we knew from two brief visits last year. It is wonderful there, the view over the sea (when she's there) is somewhat essential for us.






Inkeri and Sirpa went with us, they had their new babies with them.


My daughter had her first BJD with her, Jack Grey, but he was kind of lazy and didn't go out. Might be it has to do with him not owning proper trousers. Poor guy.
The forth doll was Polly, a vinyl doll from Playmates, tiny, but very alert and interested in almost everything, but in a very old-fashioned girly way. Can you imagine her singing "Polly has a little lamb" all day long?



And the I found out that there was one more who had sneaked into my pocket. Punky. She had been so quiet the last time that almost had forgotten about her. But now she was with us and demanded to be taken to interesting spaces. It is better to obey because heaven knows what she will do if she doesn't get her will.


 The first day the weather was fine and we had a walk at the seaside. We found beautiful flowers.



The tide was high, and the water was rolling in in bigger waves.


The waves reached through the planks of the pier. It was as in a video game, where you have to avoid barriers that pop up unexpectedly. My husband enjoyed walking through them. Getting wet was no problem as it was quite warm.






Later I showed Polly and Punky round on the farm. That was when Polly started singing said rhyme. Annoying.




Punky found the sheep too tame. She demanded for wilder beasts.



But we had a look at the hay rolls the farmer brought into his barn.



"And now for wild beasts!"
The cows were our next stop.


Polly were fascinated to learn that the red cow adopted two foreign calves to her own. The twins' mother had died from a fever.


Punky was not interested at all. "I am a cowgirl. Give me a cow to ride." But the cows didn't come near enough.


"Where is the bull? I want to tame him!"





In the meantime Inkeri and Sirpa had meant to look after their babies. But when we returned this is what we found:
