Well, we had a slight computer malfunction issue. Okay, it was totally my fault. When mom said "Will this converter work?" I guess I didn't look hard enough... My computer cord has three little doodads, and my converter only has room for two. My bad. But it's all sorted now. I was expecting to have to wait until my parents mailed me a new something, but it worked out. Enough rambling about computer things. Where did I last write? Hmm... Ah. Let's start with this:
Previously Unknown Use for a Rotary Jacket #1: Great pillow for airport-floor-naps.
Discovered: Early Sunday morning at the Frankfurt airport.
Oh, also... a random word of advice.. If you are ever in the Copenhagen airport, and you have to go from Terminal to Terminal... take the bus. Do not walk. Practically no one else does, and it will take you the better part of an hour to get there. And when you're carrying forty pounds of.. stuff on your back? With straps that cut off your circulation? Not so fun. Now, let us begin with the part of my blog that might make sense. Sunday after my nap. We ate a lovely dinner. And after dinner, we looked for Nebraska on a Danish Atlas. Surprise, surprise, there it was, smack dab in the middle of the country. But even more surprising, Crookston, Ainsworth, and Valentine were all also on there. Hmm.. Then it was time for bed. Monday, I slept until almost noon. Oops... I had toast with strawberry rhubarb jam and lemon tea for breakfast. Then we went to register me. Afterward, we went to look for a bike for me. Apparently, the Rotary Club here in Hjørring will pay for a bike for me. Very exciting. :) And then there was today. Tuesday. I woke up all on my own at around 645. Very strange. But I got up and had a nice breakfast. Then I came upstairs to read my bible. Around 1030, we drove 20 minutes or so to a town called Løkken on the beach. It was very beautiful. We went to a shop where they make candy, and we got to watch them make it. It was really really cool. Very interesting. After that, we bought some bread, walked up the beach a ways, and back to the car. We saw some people who were doing some sort of windsurfing type thing that.. wasn't windsurfing. Windsurfing is when the sail is like on a boat, and it is attached to the board. These people were surfing, but with big kites attached to them like parachutes. I have no idea what it's called, but it looked terrifying. (Maybe I should try it sometime...) After that, we drove home, I took a little nap, and we walked into the city to find me an adapter. A success, as you can see. We are having company for dinner tonight, so I will go and help with that now. On Thursday, another student and I will start special Danish classes at the school. Regular school starts next Wednesday. On the 22nd, we will take a bus to Bjerringbro for Inbound Orientation and a weeklong intensive Danish course. I am very excited to get started! I'll keep you posted on my progress. :)
