Collingwood was playing and Ian has vowed that we will never again be out of Melbourne on the date of the Grand Final in case Collingwood is a contender. It was hard for him to leave for the station in time for our train but at least he was able to get regular updates from Jenny and Claire on his phone when we were travelling. Unfortunately Collingwood was defeated by West Coast.
After a brisk walk from our apartment to Aarhus central station, we caught the 8.51am train to Skagen, a seaside resort in the north of Denmark. We arrived just after 1pm and walked to our accommodation. We are staying in a self-contained apartment which is adjacent to the house in the garden of our hosts, Inge and Calle. It has a lounge/kitchenette, bedroom and bathroom, with garden views and is quite spacious.
We spent the afternoon at Grenen, a beach on the northernmost tip of Denmark, about a 45 minute walk from where we are staying. It is one of the most popular destinations in Demark so there was quite a large group of people there, all enjoying the experience of standing with a foot in each of two seas, the Skagerrak and the Kattegat, at the very tip of the headland.
