This past weekend were the short study tours and I visited the towns of Aalborg, Skagen, and Aarhus. I really feel like I got to see so much more of Denmark's landscape, art and food!
Skagen was probably the highlight of the trip - it lies on the northern most shore of the country and the sand dunes were really beautiful. I love the way sand moves, morphs, covers up, slides, reveals, and caves at the tiniest hint of wind or weight. The art museum in Skagen was really inspiring - it was so full of memories and tragedies and stories of sailors and fishermen and the people in the area. It felt like a ghost town, though, because during the off-season it's a pretty quiet and cold place. I'm glad we saw it that way, though.
It was also nice to feel like Copenhagen was "home" after being away for a few days. This place is beginning to feel like more than just a city...
