Colleen’s Trip to Europe – July 30th, 2009

We are really enjoying our trip here in Denmark.  The people are very friendly and everywhere you go you will find people speak English.  Denmark is mostly surrounded by water so it gives them some of the greatest beaches. 

 On Sunday, we went to the West coast to a resort area called Blavand.  The beach there has powder white sand and it separates the town and summer houses.  There is plenty of shops and restaurants on the main drag into town and it is really busy right now as the factories in Denmark have closed for 3 weeks vacation.

 On Monday, we went to Legoland.  Denmark is the home of  Lego and the park is right across from the Lego plant.  That is probably why the store in Legoland has all the new Lego not available yet in Canada.  The cost to get it was about 50.00.  All the rides are based on Lego characters and everything in the park is made of Lego bricks.  It is really something to see.

 On Tuesday, we went to the island of Romo which is attached by a causeway.  Romo has the widest beach in all of Europe and you can drive your cars onto the beach as it would be too far to walk especially if the tide is out.  We stayed there for 2 days and we are now back in Kolding.   We are trying to arrange a summer house in Blavand for a couple of days so I will let you know what happens there.
