One of Lise’s best friends from Denmark is Magda, who has been here before. We three went to the Outer Banks together a year ago. Now Magda’s sister Basia (pronounced Baa-sha) is here, too. The sisters flew into Toronto, then visited Boston, New York, Washington DC, and Williamsburg VA. We have talked non-stop since they got out of the car. The first thing one notices is their excellent command of English. They grew up in Poland, and Basia still lives there. Magda has lived in Denmark for years, which is where she and Lise met. I am always amazed that many Europeans know at least two languages. How I wish I did!
The last time Magda was here, she missed seeing hummingbirds by one day. Today there were plenty coming to the feeders. We could see them easily from our seats on the porch. After we sat and chatted for a while, the girls went out for an American experience – shopping at Walmart.

How nice Magda and Basia are here on a whirlwind trip and since they speak English so well, there were no issues visiting anywhere. I am always impressed the Europeans know two languages too. Your tablecloth and Lise’s sweater are similar!
