Velkommen Til Danmark!

Feel the coldness!



Denmark. I'm here. I'm actually in Denmark! I can't believe it! Last Sunday I was on the sunny and hot beach in Noosa- Now I am freezing my face off in snow-covered Denmark! From 32° to -2°, I'M LOVING IT!

It's so exciting to see no leaves on the trees and snow everywhere. Many homes have their own flagpole where the Danish flag is waving about too. It's honestly beautiful! I still think it's strange to hear people walk past talking Danish and there are MANY Sun-tan centres I've noticed too!!

Yesterday the sun came out for a couple of hours or so but it was warmthless- completely opposite to the Queensland sun! And it's not only the weather that I'm enjoying- it's the Danish food!!

I've been treated to popular foods I've missed since living in Australia and tasting them all again was amazing! My relatives look at me weirdly when I get excited over little things to them- such as rugbrød (the black/brown bread us Scandinavians only eat).

My favourite lunch: Rugbrød med leverpostej, ristede løg og rødbede
Danish Ryebread with pork liver paté, roasted onion and rootbeet ;)

Yesterday, I also got to see Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2011 live on TV!! This is the show that decides which song will represent Denmark in the Eurovision Song Contest. It was an amazing show and we all had such a fun and cosy time :) I actually voted (5 times) but my favourite just missed out and came second :( But the winner was also good! And the songs have been playing on the radio all day again and again. I love how music I could only listen to on my iPod (in Australia) is played on the radio! Even Eurovision songs! Everything is still surreal to me at the moment. But I'm taking everything in and enjoying every moment!
