One of them is the annual Christmas trip.We have previously invited puppy buyers and dog friends to join the annual Blue Berry Christmas trip. We have gone for walks in Copenhagen, and in recent years we have gone to Roskilde and finished with lunch and package games at our home in Herringløse.
This year, the invitations were limited to the R-litter and to the R-litter's great-grandmother Toddis' people - Lis and Lars.
We met on Saturday 5th of December at Hestetorvet in Roskilde. Marianne and Leda came from Odense, Bodil and Einar came from Tåsinge with the R-litter's mother Nanna and Rumle. Lone and Per came from Farum with Sissi, and I came with Sidse and aunt Tiffany. Arne and Susanne with Wilbur and the litter's father Luffe unfortunately had to cancel at the last minute due to illness. Kit with Miley unfortunately did not have the opportunity to come.
It's been a year since most of the puppies have seen each other. So, there was just some ranking which should be in place.But otherwise, it went in a nice OES parade along the pedestrian street in Roskilde.
Here was time to talk to many people who wanted to know what a wonderful breed it was and who were going to pat.Roskildegarden walked back and forth on the pedestrian street, and the loud sound of drums was just legally harsh for some of the dogs.
So there had to be support and praise and handing out treats to the dogs.We paused at Stændertorvet, where there was a Saturday market, and where we found an outdoor place that served gløgg.
After the trip we went home to Herringløse, where we had Christmas lunch together and ended with a package game.It was a wonderful day.
Thank you, everyone who helped keeping alive one of Birte's wonderful traditions.I hope that next year we will have the opportunity to hold the trip with more participants. And without the risk of covid-19 disease!
