In case you were wondering, there was more to my trip to Denmark that you haven't seen yet. As we've established so far, I had the opportunity to see a wonderful art museum and explore the Danish countryside around Kolding for a couple days.
However, more of Denmark remained to be explored, and so Charlotte, Charlotte's grandparents, and I set off to their home on the island of Laeso for a few days. On the way, we made a couple stops. The first was at a very old Danish church, so that I could get a sense of what these churches appear like on the inside. It was very interesting to see the ornate wood and stonework dating from many centuries prior.
Then, we drove a little while longer until we reached the home of Charlotte's uncle, aunt, and two cousins. They have a wonderful house, a friendly dog, and they provided a very tasty lunch to carry us the rest of the way along our journey.
After a while longer on the road, we reached the northern tip of Denmark, from which point we caught a ferry to take us over to the small island of Laeso, where their second home is located. Despite the small size of the island, the crossing traverses open water and takes about 1.5 hours to complete, so the ferry was very spacious and comfortable.
We passed many things, including some more of my favorite sights in Denmark! They're everywhere-there's apparently a reason that people call Denmark one of the leaders in the renewable power movement.
Anyway, after riding the ferry for a while, we reached Laeso! I'm getting a bit sleepy, but in the meantime, you can take a gander at the cozy place I was able to call home for a few wonderful, relaxing days.
I'll be back to update you on the fun adventures I got to have on the island soon! In the meantime, bundle up! We just had our first snowfall of the season today!
