Spring break

Last week was spring break. Since we haven't been any farther than Copenhagen for two and a half months, we decided it was time to get out of town for a few days. We started on Tuesday by taking a bus north to the town of Helsingør. One of this city's claims to fame is that it is home to Kronborg Castle, which is the setting for Shakespeare's Hamlet.


After looking around the castle and grabbing some lunch in town, we hopped on a ferry to Helsingborg, Sweden. There, we toured around a bit. Probably the most interesting thing we saw was Kärnan, a tower which is the only piece remaining of a Danish castle that used to be here.

The next day, we took a train to Höör, Sweden, where Kyle's Mother's pen-pal Marianne and her partner Åke live.
We had a very nice visit, and the girls had a great time playing with their dogs.


I've posted a few more pictures here.
