Smooth sailing from here on out...

Well, we've had a slight delay here due to a few nasty viruses, but thankfully Jared found them and "exterminated" the little buggers last night!

I had a VERY rude surprise yesterday when I rounded the corner coming out of the kitchen only to find a beheaded mouse lying there like a bloody stump! I was totally disgusted and nearly called Jared, but decided to buck up and take care of it myself (with the aid of several paper towels between my fingers and that little tail!). I put Mela on a diet last week (well, from 75 grams of food a day to 70 grams) becuase he's really quite fat and all he does is sleep all day. Apparently he's taking his revenge!

Moving on...
We had a great time last Sunday visiting nearby Kronborg Castle in Helsingør. The castle was built by Frederick II in 1574-85 on the remails of the old Krogen fortress from the 1420s. There was a major fire in 1629, after which Christian IV rebuilt the castle as before adding about three zillion of his crests in strategic places!
