Safe in the motherland
We’ve arrived in Denmark, the last leg of the journey. We spent about eight hours traveling by train from Berlin through Hamburg to Copenhagen. At one point (at the very northernmost tip of Germany) the train actually rolled onto a ship and was ferried across the Baltic Sea. We were able to get off the train and walk around on the ship for the 45-minute crossing. Pretty crazy.
It’s nice to see family and stay in some comfortable surroundings. We had dinner (and licorice) (and Carlsberg) at Sonja and Stefan’s (cousins) house last night. I’m at my Aunt Inger’s place now, typing away on a keyboard that has fun characters like: æ, ø, å, £. So it’s all gøød. We’ll be going to Annette’s (cousin) church this morning and plan on going to Tivoli tonight. I’ll try and get some photos up later.

Say hi to the cousins and aunt inger from us! Wish we could all be there too. :( Oh yeah, don’t forget an order of pastries for us too. You may as well buy another suitcase just for candy and pastry! Doug would love a matador mix too I’m sure….Enjoy your time in Danmark! Can’t wait to hear all about your trip in person. You’ll have to have a passport party and invite us all at the same time so you don’t have to keep retelling stories. :)

Say hi to everyone. Have a great time. I’m sure it is much more relaxing now that you are with family. We would love to be there too. Don’t get sick on the Matador Mix.
