On üks tuntud shoti viski Johnnie Walker. Ja siis on vaat et sama kuulus Walker, the Texas Ranger a.k.a Chuck Norris. Nüüd on selles reas veel üks Walker – Gustav Paul! Sest tema nimelt hakkas kõndima, napilt enne aasta ja kahe kuuseks saamist:
On Wednesday night daddy’s friend Eileen and her family invited us out for dinner. As Gustav walked into this nice & quiet Italian place in Hampstead he was welcomed by a company of (almost) equal age and size:
There is still plenty of time to grow up and compete for girls, concert tickets, better seats, business and what not. These days the most competitive moments tend to be about food:
…and apparently we have the pushy yogurt winner. Chilling with Duncan, Sebastian’s dad:
Meanwhile mommy was trying to find out if the kids really weigh about the same:
To be able to share more quality time with daddy Gustav will spend next 4 weeks in London. To feel genuinely British, first, there’s the notorious black cab to get acquainted to:
… then settle in to the almost-central-London apartment and move on to enjoying the “local” fresh fruit, like the enormous strawberry to match the outfit:
… and discovering the importance of listening to The Wise Guy when mummy has insisted on buying the silly tasteless Easter Egg although daddy has said there’s no point:
… but also find joy in dining out and making new friends in restaurant managers like this friendly guy in the Thai place on the Kensington High Street:
… sipping some very picturesque (resembling an impressionist landscape painting) tea at Ping Pong in Soho:
… taking long walks along the banks of the Thames in Chelsea:
… spotting some spotted cars:
… and welcoming the new eBay-ordered pram enabling him to the long-missed long-lasting outdoor naps on the balcony (to the great amazement of the locals):
As Gustav had decided to cut the party short for his parents, Elisabeth was up early the next day to do some catching up in the cafe she and mommy had met in ages ago:
… and get to know Kusti, dressed all in Jürka’s teddy outfit, more intimately:
… and take some professional pics of Kusti and his mum on the hotel stairs. As good as it gets with Ixus:
Close-up of the ted:
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the best friend of all?
On his way out of Zürich, Gustav had a flash forward of what his dad could look like after 20 years of hard work-out and a soft stylist:
But so far, look out Gustav, not to be caught red-handed again:
Once a person is already one year and a month old it’s about time to visit a land of plenty… watches, chocolates and banks – Switzerland! And the reason for doing that is not to buy monstrous chocolate eggs nor get the financial advice but attend the wedding of mummy’s old friend Elisabeth. Nice!
Although having had some difficulty finding the city hall of Zürich, Gustav got there right in time when the guests were still gathering and the bride – Elisabeth – and the groom – Erin – were getting rather nervous:
And what a coincidence – Woody Harrelson (a.k.a Elisabeths’s dad with other members of the family) was also there!
Still some time left to reconsider?
Then it was about to get official:
And then it was done:
Or as one of the Estonian house-hold-name politicians would say: “Done!”:
After the official part the freshly married couple and the wedding guests walked to the banks of Zürichsee to take some pictures. Elisabeths’s another old friend, photographer Christian, was up to the job, and while doing so, looking very professional:
But before the lot arrived in Elisabeth’s studio for the after-party, her brothers (taking the command of the parents) had organized a surprise: a limo driving the couple and the parents around the town (during the Friday rush-hour;):
The limo-company has us convinced: definitely no drunk driving here:
Märtsikuus juba teist korda sõitis Gustav Tartusse. Sedakorda onu Wassi 30. juubelile, mis peeti vanas heas Visa hallis ja vägagi sportlikus võtmes. Kõige väiksemad külalised näiteks katsusid jõudu kukepoksis, küll endale paslikus suuruses ja ainuma võistleja, kollase tibuga:
Suuremad inimesed võtsid mõõtu sulgpalli paarismängus. Tegus duo issi ja onu Amish sai suisa väärika 4. koha:
Nende poolfinaalmängule elas kaasa oma fännklubi:
Võitjaks osutus hoopis naiskond, mille üks liige Triin võtab vastu õnnitlusi sünnipäevalapselt ja 4. koha omanikult:
Gustav otsustas seepeale, et ta proovib parem karated. Varustus pealegi samast klubist, kus issi kunagi oma pikka ja kuulsusrikast sportlasteed alustas:
Mida Gustav äsja sõi?*
1. a) brokkolit, b) lillkapsast, c) kartulit, d) kõiki eelpoolnimetatuid:
2. a) midagi kahtlast pruuni, b) vasikaliha portveinikastmes, c)Karumsit, d) shokolaadi:
3. a) jäätist, b) midagi koorest, c) midagi toorest, d) midagi soolast:
Kass Endel aga tassis jälle kohale hiire:
Gustav omakorda ronis tumba peale:
Ja proovis issi uut tooli:
Marta Emilie oli vahepeal sootuks kõndima õppinud:
Gustav ja Karmen loevad see-eest tõsiste nägudega raamatut:
Uusim meelelahutus on rollimäng teemal “olen lehetäi-deltaplaanilendur”:
