Final Thoughts πŸ—Ί

Now that we are safely back in our homes and with our families, we just have the memories of our time together in Denmark, but what fabulous memories they are! When I asked the students what their favorite memories of the trip were, two boys immediately replied in unison, "rowing the Viking ship." Even though this was the worst weather day of the entire trip, it was still such a neat experience...maybe is was more memorable because of the wind and rain.  Other top answers were the visit to the school, the bike ride (our bums certainly remember this adventure best), climbing the outside spire for a birds eye view of Copenhagen, making a surprise trip to Sweden, and seeing the white cliffs of Mons Klint. We certainly did a lot in one week! 

My favorite memory is riding the roller coaster at Tivoli Gardens....it was just so much fun, and I thought of Phillip and Clara as I zoomed up and down. I found my name in Denmark, too, which was neat:


Traveling is one of the best ways to learn about the world. Exploring other cultures helps us understand our own selves better, and allows us to have a more informed perspective of the world around us. I hope that everyone on this trip has been motivated to travel again and continue a life long adventure of learning.
