Lovely winter time in Pandrup



This is what my life consists of in this moment:

Chillaxing with Rasmus and enjoying life

And I love it!
We know how to be social together. hah.

I got up early yesterday to pack my stuff, have breakfast and say goodbye to the people in Malling.

Spent some hours in buses and a train to get to Pandrup.


Norwegian tourist! Flag, running shoes and woollen socks...

I was really sleepy, but the weather was nice and I got started on "Señor Peregrino" by Cecilia Samartin, which seems to be a really good book.

I arrived in Pandrup at 2 o'clock, and Rasmus was waiting for me at the bus stop. Oh, joy!
It was wonderful to see him again. And a bit strange meeting him without all the others from the Lions camp in Estonia.
We miss you guys!
However, it's amazing being here, and I forgot how fun it was talking with Rasmus.

We went to his house and I met his parents. Wonderful people! So funny and happy and open.

Rasmus and I took the bikes to see the city center of Pandrup - which means the main street.
Cute, Danish countryside idyll with small shops and cute brick houses.

We bought some sweets (badly influence from Rasmus...) and came back with blue, frozen fingers and met his grandparents. We had a lovely, lovely dinner all of us and Anne, Rasmus' twin sister, and Lasse, her boyfriend. Great food, great wine, great people, great conversations, great laughs. I really love the sense of humour here; I laughed until headache yesterday.
After hours of that mix, we went upstairs to Rasmus' room.

Got ya!

Handyman in action making my bed.


I really thought my cold was on retreat yesterday, but I was wrong. After we went to bed, I started coughing, and I continued for three hours, until I felt so bad for Rasmus (who claims he can't remember anything of my noisy behavious) that I moved out in the corridor on a couch. I fell asleep at 3 o'clock in the morning, and I'm already quite tired now. But I'm happy!
What a great day it's been.
After breakfast we had a shower, prepared ourselves and Ramsus' parents took us for a trip to Rubjerg Knude lighthouse.
How beautiful. Perfect weather (though cold), wonderful view. Danish nature on it's best.

Amazing light and frozen sand

Inside the lighthouse. Normally it is almost covered by sand, but now it's able to look inside.

We went to Lønstrup to eat lunch, a pretty little beach village with yellow and white houses down to the white, sandy beach.
We ordered food, me a chicken sandwich, and got a rather pleasant surprise when it after a quite long discussion about future and attitudes to family arrived, and we all got a huge plate filled with yummi things. That is the most delicious sandwich I think I ever had.

There was continuously a freezing breeze from the ocean, so even though the sun was shining, it was a bit below the pleasant-level.
On the way home we passed their summerhouse near a great beach. I wouldn't be sad to spend some sunny days there! Reason to come back:D

Now for the rest of the evening, we are going to watch interesting TV-programs and laugh and talk.

My life.

Awesome.

Danish winter
