Western Denmark...















After many wonderful days in Copenhagen, we ventured westward across Denmark. Our next destination was Haderslev, the home of another special friend of ours, Mette. She gave us a wonderful tour of her city, and she opened our eyes (and bellies) to even more culinary delights. While traveling, Kyle and I tend to abandon our relatively meat-free existence, in the spirit of cultural opportunities. That said, Kyle and I bravely consumed open-faced sandwiches with ground liver, bacon, and fish roe. Surprisingly the flavors were quite good. We also sampled more pastries, viewed old timber-framed homes, and witnessed our first game of European handball. As Mette lives out in the country, we were also treated to some leisurely strolls in the fresh air and along a peaceful beach. The rhythm of life in small-city Denmark was indeed quite magical. Though our stay there was rather brief, it felt very rich and refreshing. Tak!
