Wednesday, March 30th

Last day in charming little Denmark! We went to a beach and fed some swans in the morning, then I went shopping and got a cute dress in a little outlet-type store for 50 kroner (about $10). The clothes fashions here in Denmark are pretty much the same as in America, except that many many many women wear black tights for pants.
After shopping, we drove out to this castle called Kronberg Castle in Helsinge. It was really awesome, and it turns out that Shakespeare based Hamlet on that place. Afterwards, I got a hotdog, topped with fried onions, fresh onions, relish, mustard, and sweet pickles. Usually I don't like most of that stuff at all but it was delicious!!
One picture is of me and the Little Mermaid statue in Kobenhavn. For those of you who are wondering why they'd have a statue of her way out in Denmark, or why she doesn't look like "Ariel," it's because Hans Christian Anderson wrote the original story in Kobenhavn long ago.
The other picture is of Danish money, kroner, except for one of the coins, which is a British pound.
Tonight we're having a family reunion, or "cousin-party" as they say here. Funn times! :) And tomorrow- Paris! :D
