Viking Ship

Denmark, home of the Vikings.

Today, there are still opportunities to go sailing on a real Viking ship at the Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde.

Trans

Trans Church. It's another of the west coast churches that the ocean (due to erosion) will claim sooner or later.

Efforts to stop the erosion. Pretty, too.

The beach at Trans.

Grenen

Grenen - The Branch - is the most northern tip of Denmark. If you look closely, you can see the waves coming from two sides. The two oceans, Kattegat and Skagerak, meet here. This part of Denmark grows 10 meters every year.

For the ideal picture, there would be only sand and water. Grenen is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Denmark, though, so there are almost always people around. The people show the most nothern part of Denmark very well, though.

Slettestrand

Slettestrand.

Fishing boats made especially to be pulled onto the beach the way they have been made for centuries and centuries.

Bulbjerg

Bulbjerg. The most fantastic scenery.

Bunker from World War 2.

Observation post where the Germans watched the ocean just north of the North Sea during World War 2.

The observation room.

What the German soldiers could - and did - see through the slit.

Change in the weather. Shadows on the water from the clouds.



Nr. Lyngby - Old Church Bell

The bell from the old church at Nr. Lyngby. The church was torn down in 1913 as it was situated on a cliff that every storm eats away at. The bell is left at the old cemetery. Most of the graves are gone, but a few remain...until a storm takes away the land.

Dannebrog

“Dannebrog,” Copenhagen Harbor. The oldest royal ship still in use. It celebrated its 80th birthday, hence all the flags and people on board.

Canal

Boats in one of the Copenhagen canals. 

Bønnerup

View from Bønnerup Harbor on a (very!) windy day in May. 

Noma

Noma. It may not look like much, but it's the world's best restaurant for the third year running. 

Copenhagen

One of the Copenhagen canals. The building on the right is the Stock Exchange. The spire is dragon tails winding together, and on the top the three crowns represent the Kalmar Union between Denmark, Norway, and Sweden from 1397 to 1523.
