Now that christmas tree isn't going to walk home by itself, now is it?
Our little family made our way down to our good friends at Baisikeli - the sustainability org who send used Danish bikes to Africa - to get ourselves our christmas tree.
What better way to get the tree home but in the cargo box of our Long John.
A tight squeeze for the kids, but they loved it.
This photo was taken on December 13, 2008 in Kleinsgade, Copenhagen, Hovedstaden, DK, using a Canon PowerShot G9.

good job they tied it up for you, as a feel a slight navigation problem could have arisen : )

It might have been a tight fit for the kids but they sure look as happy as I would have been, if forty year old man could have fitted in there too ;-)
Only 361 days until Christmas 2009...Bring it on!

Who needs lights on the tree when you have such bright, shiny reflectors on the bike!

Congratulations on receiving more than 5,000 views -- that's quite impressive! Now that you've reached this milestone, you might want to consider graduating this photograph from the 'Views: 4000' group to the 'Views: 5000' group, which can be found here: www.flickr.com/groups/views5000/
Once again, congratulations and hopefully your photos will receive many more views in the future! (Reminder: Photos should only be in one 'Views:xx' group at a time.)
