Anna's Swedish Crayfish Leaving-Do

As I mentioned in the last post, Anna is also leaving Nurnberg for Amsterdam.  Lucky girl because Amsterdam is fabulous.  While a little late for traditional Swedish crayfish season, it was still fitting and Stockholm Bar in town was willing to assist in the cooking.

On part of a Crayfish party is that you're supposed to have a homemade paper hat.  Here is Christoph, Anna's boyfriend, with his hat.  He's French.  And clearly proud of it, though he was also excited that if he turns his head it can also be the Netherland's flag, too. 


L to R around the table......Lucas, Kris, Johan, and Tom

Catrin and Christoph

The crayfish!

The sides.


So after the crayfish and the paper hats the last two parts of a Crayfish party are singing Swedish songs and then taking a shot of the most disgusting vodka.  I don't know how the Swedish survive.  Anna proceed to pass out two pages w/ about 10 songs each....and the bottle of vodka.  Jesus.

Anja, Anna the party gal, and Tom.  Even Tom is very worried about this plan.

Not convinced this is a good idea.

Lucas and Catrin trying to figure out how to sing in Swedish.



Me and Lucas and our fancy hats.

Then Andi and Neilo showed up.  yay.


Give us two minutes and it always turns to thug love....
