The boys are standing in a field of rape seed (canola), which is a major source of food grade oil. We were absolutley stunned by the beauty of these fields. The yellow blossoms of the plant stood out in contrast to the surrounding lush green hills and trees.
We drove all day from Stockholm to Koge, Denmark. This was #1 of the 2 bed and breakfasts we had planned to stay at. A retired couple own this home and have opened their doors to guests for the past 5 years. We had a huge upstairs room all to ourselves. We had a typical Danish breakfast and soaked up the delightful conversation with our hosts and one other guest.
This is one of the many fantastic Lego sights to be found in Legoland! Millions of Legos were used to recreate famous places around the world. We saw airports with airplanes actually rolling down the runways, harbors with ships in the waterways, castles, skyscrapers, scenic neighborhoods in Holland and Denmark, etc. etc. All of it was mind-boggling and fascinating, to say the least.
Hubby and the boys (under the blue archway) at the Legoland entrance. It was sunny but the wind was blowing and the air was a frigid 45 degrees. I was only warm when I was carrying a foam cup full of coffee! Thankfully, we checked the weather before we left home and knew it wasn't going to be warm so we were prepared with all our layers of clothing.
Denmark is actually three islands. We crossed a gigantic bridge to get to the middle island. It took us 10 minutes driving 70 mph to get across. We spent a couple hours goofing off in a city called Odense, and we ate at Froggy's Cafe.
Sorry that's all I got time for now. Consider that a little teaser.
Rejoicing Evermore,
Marla
