On the way to the bach I had a meeting with my dealer gallery in Århus and I'd brought two paintings from New Zealand. Really nice to see the gallery 'live' instead of just on the internet and good to meet the owner - Gitte - again. After the meeting we drove to Skørpinge, to meet Janus' parents for the first time - Kirsten and Tony. And they'd made a huge lunch - very, very nice (and they were really nice as well :D ). We only had a short time though, as we needed to go and pick up the keys for the bach, so we'd arranged for them to come visit us in the bach the next day - for Sunday brunch.
And we also visited Råbjerg Mile - the closest we get to a desert in Denmark. From Wikipedia:
It is the largest moving dune in Northern Europe with an area of around 1 km2 (0.4 mi2) and a height of 40 m (130 ft) above sea level. The dune contains a total of 4 million m3 of sand. The wind moves it in a north-easterly direction up to 18 metres (59 ft) a year.
It was a lot of fun running down the dunes and Lucas really enjoyed himself - and so did the rest of us :) And to make the day even better we met a couple of horses in the dunes and Janus convinced the riders to let Lucas try to ride one of the horses - so it ended up being a very, very good day :)
