Lucas and Jonas

Today was another fun day! It was such beautiful weather, and my cou-cou-cou-cousins visited me. They are Lucas and Jonas, and my mama and their papa are cou-cou-cousins. That means we are family, but just a bit far away. Lucas and Jonas live in Switzerland, but they are on holiday in Holland and visit us. They are very good walkers and runners, so we go by foot to the archeological open air museum in our town. I sit in the buggy, and play my newest game: feet in the air!!

The open air museum has all sorts of houses, also an glacier stone house. It is a low house and I have to bend when I walk. My mama thought it was cosy too! Lucas and Jonas run around the place and climb.

At all the houses that we visit I make a study of the grounds: sand, sand with shells, sand with small stones. And I do a lot of climbing too. Would that be the Swiss in me?


We also use an old method ferry and Lucas and Jonas are the ferrymen. I liked the ferry very much: I ran back but my papa caught me just before I was back at the water.

Later we kids all tried to climb into the canoe, and this time my mama stopped me. Hmmm, I wanna be a big girl!!


Back home we play in my backyard and I show them a game I invented two days ago. It is called Rollebolle and it means you roll over the grass with your feet up in the air. I play this game all the time now. And everywhere. It makes me see the world upside down.
