Wall
We visited a village I have been in many times before as well, and this wall is a part of a church that they have taken down large pieces from. It stands on a cliff wich gradually falls down, and they believe that it has been another village where the ocean is today.

Well, these pictures are the last ones from Denmark. I came home yesterday, after about 7 hours by car and 2 hours  by boat, as well as visiting three countries (Denmark, Sweden and Norway).

Q: What’s your record when it comes to visiting a certain number of countries in less than 12 hours (you need to be able to take a break where you for example eat or just relax. If you travel by plane, it counts when you visit the country’s airport)?

So, it’s summer

Yesterday was my last day at secondary school. The whole graduation ceremony went fine. Some received their diploma with the wrong hand (it’s possible), but luckily I didn’t. The whole ceremony, with entertainment included, lasted for about two hours. After the ceremony, we went to a classroom and celebrated with old pictures, food and speeches. I ate pasta salad and cake.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t allowed by my parents to bring my dSLR, and my other digital camera didn’t have a loaded battery, so I wasn’t able to take any pictures. Anyway; the room was decorated very nicely, you were almost not able to tell it was a classroom.

It is still werid. All those people were amazing, and I do not even know if I will see all of them ever again.

On the other hand; I think this summer will be special. I am going to meet many of my Norwegian relatives (Honestly, I did almost not even know I had some. I’m only 1/4 Norwegian). I will also travel to a country I haven’t been to in 12 years (when I was around 4 years old). I will also travel to Denmark (which I have been to quite many times) and another place in Norway.

Flowers means summer to me. I hope these images will  give you that “summer feeling” as well.
