So mom and I decided to venture out to Denmark one day last week. We had a good day and thanks to our GBS system didn't make any wrong turns. (Of course, we probably didn't need it since I had mom and her map with me) We took off that morning with our German dictionary and euros in hand ready for the day. After getting there though, we realized that in Denmark they speak Danish, not German and use some other werid form of money and not euros. Luckily they also accepted euros too since they are so close to Germany but as for the launguage we were pretty much on our own. The people there I thought made Germans seem friendly....which is a long shot. We shopped around some and ate at a small diner that we found. There was a light house there that we went up in (after forking over 10 euros) and also saw the prince of Denmark's castle. The down point of the day was when we got ready to come home and found we had a ticket on our car. Seems that you were supposed to put some sort of timer on your car saying what time you left and you have to be back within 3 hours or you get a ticket. Well, since we didn't know that nor did we have a timer we ended up with a ticket. Instead of just heading home and letting Cat take care of it (since the car is leased in their name) we hunted down the police station and mom went in to pay for it. After 45 minutes and 70 euros we finally headed back to Germany. Can you believe a 70 dollar ticket for parking a little too long??? Anyhow, we had a good day and now can add Denmark to our list of places we have been.....but don't care if we return, right mom? :)

You forgot to mention the delicious "Potato Bread" that we got in Denmark. Also the mean little boy that didn't want to share the slicky slide with Maggie.
