They also had a snake show at the elephant place.
Some of the snakes were very poisonous such as this monocled cobra.
And the huge king cobra (which kept coming over the safety barrier).
Chong and I volunteered to hold the python.
I wonder how often the snake guy has been bitten by his snakes.

This year we traveled to Phuket in Thailand along with Kim's sisters family and her dad.
We had to fly via Bangkok, so we were a bit worried how the kids would handle the long flight (especially Lucas), but everyone handled it reasonably well.
The boys were very excited to be going on a big aeroplane.
Once we arrived to Bangkok it was pretty obvious to see that they were very excited.
The only thing that never made it all the way to the hotel was our stroller. We lost it somewhere between Phuket airport and the hotel...but wasn't a big loss and hopefully someone puts it to goo local use.

It is time to renew Aiden passport and like last time there were a lot of outtakes that we could not use, but which were quite funny.

Here is some more photos of my grandma and grandpa on my mothers side.
Here she is with her sisters (my grandma on the far right)
Here is some of her when she was young.
Here is one that I assume was taken in 1969 based on the date of the photo.
I think this one if my grandpa when he was young.
And here is some more.
And here is some family gathering photos.
I think it is her brother on the left. And my cousin Mette on the right.
And this is with my grandparents on my fathers side (left to right bedstefar, mormor, morfar, bedstemor, mum and Claus).

Going through some old photos I came across these of my great grand parents (on my mothers side).
I am pretty sure that the little girl on the left is my Mum (So the photos must have been taken around 1943-1944) and the other two girls are her sisters (My Aunties) Eli on the right and Yrsa in the middle.
I assume that the women in the back are their grand parents (my great grands) with the woman on the right being my grandmothers (mormor's) mum and the one on the right being grandad's (morfar'd) mum.
Here is a family photo of what I assume is my grandmothers (mormor's) family. I think it is my grandma in the middle right behind my great grandmother.
I assume this is my great grandparents, but I cannot be certain.
This must be a birthday for my grandmother.
This was taken outside the farm where my mum grew up. It is my grandad (morfar) in the middle on the right and it could be m: |

Today it is Aidens Birthday....he is now 5 Months old (when you are less than 6 months old you get to have birthday every month).
He is a good/easy little boy. He is now able to keep his head up, but still unable to sit or roll around onto his tummy. He sleeps through the night and wakes up around 7.30 to get a feed. On weekends he is happy to go back to sleep so his Mummy and Daddy can sleep in.
He is very quiet when in crowded places and likes to just sit and observe (Kims dad is saying that he has got that after me).
It has taken me a long time to get this photo done. I had to wait for him to keep his head up and even then it was pretty hard to get hime to look in the right direction.

I have now finished the second portrait in the series of the four elements...just Fire and Air left. This one is "Water". The yellow blob is a Weedy Sea Dragon.
...Really helping my Photoshop skills. Not sure if anyone else thinks these photos are cool...but they are cool to make and are different from what I'd otherwise be doing.

This weekend Kim and I went to see the musical Fame at Capitol theatre with a couple of friends Audrey and John.
Most of the cast was made up of dancers from “So you think you can dance” so there was a potential for a really good performance with some excellent dancing.
Our friends had organised a babysitter for the night and Aiden was being looked after by Kim’s dad and sister.
The performance was good (but not great). I think we were expecting more singing and dancing (It was a musical) and less dialogue. The second half of the play was a lot better than the first half with more dancing.
Unfortunately our friends missed this part as she was worried about their kid left alone with the babysitter (that is kinda the point of getting a babysitter) and left during the intermission.
At the end they got everyone in the audience up from their chairs for the famous "Fame" song.
Kim and I however had a good night out…and she looked smashing!
