Day 20

Let us present to you the ongoing project: Our porch,

Not so much to see right now but it will look nicer when it is finished and we hope that it will keep our caravan free from some mud.

Day 19

It smells natural when taking our bikes from the caravan to the Chruch.

Our new curtains- use to be the cover for our kitchen chairs

Our nice cherry-wood floor.

Kenneth has designed and made our new lamps. Cool huh. We try to find ways to recycle, for exampel are we making our "porch" from old pallets as we did with the bed, we have cut the old cushions to fit the new seats, in process of making a table from an table top we found in the garbage...

Day 13

Pictures from yesterday. Now we are getting ready for a new day :-)

half our new bed

Harald was very brave the whole day. Didn't hide down by his tree as the other day- but was exploring and making himself at home. At the end of the day he got chased by the other cats and was balancing on the balcony above the dog.

Day 12

Today we painted and put up floor strips, built a bed, built a closet, painted it, put up wall cabinets, cooked pasta with cheese sauce, brought pillows from the attic, lost the hammer 20 times ... Now we will watch a film!

Day 11

We are now at day 11. Yesterday we made sure to take lots of pictures.
Nicola that has been staying in our apartment has found a new place to stay so now his room is all empty. I even took the curtens down. We fill the car everytime we go to the chruch, so our last day here we will not have so much left to bring- we hope.

Doing some fixing up before putting a second coat of paint.

Here we will have a table.

Nasia was cooking us a great meel with cream meatballs.

Where our bed will be.

Dominic was not only giving us a good deal for the floor.
He was also helping us putting it in!

Day 9

Ok, now we have started painting the caravan without doing anything with the insulation. Nasia and Lena did the painting- first coat is done. Kenneth was making "feets" for the caravan so that it will stand more stable- and it does make a huge differens! He also made some stairs so that we don't have to do some gymnastic exercises to get in. And! we got a good deal for our floor. Was looking online at a shop on the mainland that had "click floor" for 28€ per m2. Then you also have to pay to get the car across with the ferry. But now next to our camper a carpenter lives, and he gave us a floor for 10€ per m2! And no ferryride needed! We got it delivered to our caravan and he even offered himself to come and help us tomorrow! This will make a big differens and then atleast we will have some insulation from the floor. God is good.
Tomorrow we'll make sure to take some pictures so you can see the progress we made.

Day 9

Now it's Tuesday morning and we are getting ready for new adventures at our caravan.
Ok, to put the cover up was something that took more time then I expected! I (Lena) had in my mind to get it up there in maybe an hour... But hours later I knew better... But we got other bits and pieces done aswell yesterday. Kenneth was done with the film (a commercial) and took it to the camping and they liked it (of course). I was moving some things from the kitchen and making a mess in the church... Started to clean and make space in the cupboards but then I had to go so it's all over the place now (I hope no one is planing to use the kitchen today- but me that should go there and clean).
After we wrote the post the other day we have had a lot of thoughts forth and back whether to actually reinsulate the caravan or not. Last thing said is that we are not... We'll see by the end of the day. Now it's time for some action!

Day 6

Now the pergola is done, only have to put up the actuall cover that will give our caravan some nice and cool shade... at least it want be as warm we hope. And next week we will be bussy making the insulation to not make it to cold in the winter... We have now decided to take the walls out, check if the present insulation is fine (no mold or stuff), put it back and put some new and then put the old walls back (if they last our test). Then we only have to paint and so put our bed, benches and cupboards back... Well Nasia has already started helping us painting the cupboards.

We took Harald with us to see his new home. He didn't like it at all! There was lots of cats that didn't know anything about hospitality and a very scary dog. Well we hope he keep away from the dog, he has already killed a few cats...
These tomatos are growing next to our new "bedroom" (the caravan). Aren't they beautiful!


(took the pictures yesterday- day 6)

Day 4

Kenneth has been building a sun shade for our caravan.
I have been home packing.
Harald has made sure we wan't forget to bring him.

One moment he was playing in full speed, next he just fall asleep
- I thought he broke his neck and died or something...
