Down Barbie lane

I came across this video of Crystal Barbie from 1983. My sister Tóra owned it and I just loved it. So I started a 80's barbie search frenzy. I found several barbies that I, Tóra and my cousins Katrin and Marjun owned. So much fun seeing again. I still love the dresses and the hair and the eye shadows and the shoes...
Good times!

Some time ago I bought this tiny dictionary for under a doller. It´s a danish/norwegian/german dictionary. Must say it´s a very portable size indeed. Liliput reminds me of a the sweetest girl I know in Aarhus, who works at a printing house that specializes in making these odd though cool looking and portable bibles.

Coolest buss ever!

Look what I saw on my way home from work yesterday. A Scania 1957 in perfect concision. Steen Nilsson is the proud owner of the buss, he bought it in 1961 and you can hire him and his busses to drive you around. So cool!
