Take the third right, to go left





Round-a-bouts are so much fun. If you miss your exit you just keep on rounding until it comes up again, marvelous.

We headed out on the freeway today to see Denmark. Heading towards Egeskov Castle, through the morning fog. The castle proved to be the least interesting part of the expedition. I discovered that, 1. when the early morning dew shimmers on the roses, it really does look like glitter, 2. my sense of direction in a maze is actually better than Gene's and finally, people have been creating fun places for children to play for 500 years and the games are still fun!

Other notes from the road:

The warm weather is fabulous, but with it comes the vicious mosquitoes, I have the welts to prove it.

The leaves are turning and starting to fall like rain.

We are experiencing a very, very unusual string of sunny days and everyone, including the birds and the bees, seem to know it.

Farmers in Denmark work the fields until the middle of the night it if is dry.

The bike with side car that Hagrid drove, really exists!!

And finally, getting away from the routine for a few days is pretty great.



Love'n it,

Carol
