Woke up bright and breezy by a passport control man knocking on our carriage at stupid o'clock in Flensburg, Germany. We then transferred onto a very rude and busy train to Rødekro, where our foreign exchange friend from school lives. Pulling up at the station it looked far different to what we were used to experiencing. So quiet and calm! Juana picked us up and on our way to her's we got some bread rolls from the bakery. This is what we arrived to on our first day in Denmark:We met Juana's parents, (Edith and Helge) who were really nice! Their English was good, but it made me laugh how they called a runny egg a 'running egg'! Haha, I felt a bit dizzy, I think from the night train so had a shower, Juana had a jam packed agenda prepared for us so we then headed out to a lake where the Danish Queen has her holidays! She packed us a few cans of this lovely 'Pepsi twist' which just had a hint of lemon!
After a walk round and a very embarrassing picture of myself was taken, we saw a windmill representing victory in an old war. I was asked by a shop lady something in danish that I didn't understand so I went blank and Juana later told me she thought I was dumb :(
A quick stop back at her home, (where, btw, we had a gorgeous double bed to ourselves!!) and we went to 'Sønderborg' for a look at 'klipklaps' (English = Flipflops) and enjoyed a yummy at the kind expense of Edith and Helge AND even had ice cream which had this weird sticky stuff on called 'guff' by the harbor.Got home for a bit of a chill and watched the horror Mama!!! Edith made us waffles on the night as well - so nice!
