ceiling in the castle
these huge beach balls were sitting outside the window at the hotel
this wind farm sits out to sea. denmark sits between the north sea and the baltic sea and is one of the greener of the european countries.

Notes from Denmark
The view from the window seat over austria.
copenhagen train station.
there are bicycles everywhere here. cars cost 4x the price they are in the states, and the people are taxed nearly 45% of their incomes! Perfect health care, great education system, wonderful infrastructure, and awesome public transportation.
Lines over trains
i don't know what this represents but it was very nice.
kromborg castle. kings and queens of the danes. amazing. definitely worth the while.
cannons are still in use. they used to have a sea tax. if someone wouldn't pay they would fire a warning shot out front. now they use it for celebrations; 40 shots for the princesses twins.
the largest ballroom in northern europe. huge.
cool stair.
covered bridge into the city of nyborg (pronounced 'nouborg').
traditional housing. the yellow one at the end is a traditional wood beam house.
power plant in the mist.
this is a student of mine and i walking down the beach outside the hotel.
this is us stripping to our shorts.
this is us running into the water. 1.7 degrees celcius; not too bad.
oh, yeah it is. this is me doing my best to get out of the water fast.
jumping jacks, warm the core.
we are having a great time. the conference is going well. i have more pictures and i'll post again later.
