Worked right up until the last moment yesterday to be ready for the off to Denmark. Quite reminded me of when I was working and I used post reports to Margaret from the airport to type. Left the house at 3.45am for the flight Gerona - Bilund. Arrived in semi-sunshine to a surprisingly flat countryside and a warm welcome from Lone and Jesper. Came home by a scenic route stopping off in a bakery for what else but a danish pastry which was accompanied by a free coffee. A leisurely lunch, a little rest and then a walk around Odense. Some very quaint streets particularly aroun
d the Hans Christian Anderson house. Had 2 wines and a tea outside in the square which cost 18€! Now we realise why Nordic folk find prices so reasonable when they come here. In the evening we were whisked off to a professional ice-hockey match where nephews had played and Jesper's brother had been the coach. I don't think they should have retired as they lost! Still Christian was dead chuffed with his team shirt and there were fireworks, lots of razzamatazz and very little aggro.
