Trip Denmark 2012; Aggersborg

After seeing the Fyrkat Ringfortress, Aggersborg was a little dissapointing. It is clear that it used to be much bigger than Fyrkat but there is little left of it.

The 11th century church next to it stole our hearts.

Trip Denmark 2012: Vikingecentre Fyrkat and Fyrkat

The last two days we spend in the garden and on the beach. Finally we had some days of summer. We have a really bad summer this year in Europe, and  so we decided to enjoy the sunshine to the fullest.

The weather is still really nice but the temperature is a little lower, so we have a little more energy. Today we visited the Fyrkat Vikingcenter and the Fyrkat reconstruction.

Trip Denmark 2012; Lindholm Hoje

Today we visited Lindholm Hoje. Walking between all those graves and the outlines of the houses was impressive. It's definitely more than a lot of stones. The museum was also very interesting.

Trip Denmark; Stovorde

It was really great weather. So we decided to take a break and stay in the garden.

Remko was carving wood.

Myrddin was playing near the waterside.

Trip Denmark 2012; Jelling

Today we where travelling from Ribe to our cabin in Stovorde. We decided to take a break at Jelling.

The Visitors centre on the other side of the road is also worth a visit.

The best part of our cabin in Mou/Stovorde is the view on the fjord. This was the view from our cabin.

At the end of the garden...
