This weekend we had a lot of free time, which was a nice break from our busy schedule. We started off Saturday morning with our last game against a Danish team and went to watch the boys play afterwards. We spent most of the afternoon in a Hummel store in downtown Arhus where many of us bought handball gear. We then all went for ice cream before heading back to the academy for swimming. After dinner we wandered downtown again where there was a music festival going on, but this time with the boys' team and also the ATHF players that are living in Denmark. We broke off into groups to explore for two hours and then met up at a fountain in the middle of the town by a clock tower where we found to ... read more

Denmark blog #1 The morning of Tuesday, August 13th, the teams arrived at the airport to commence their long journey to Denmark. After 16 hours of airports and airplane rides, the teams finally arrived in Copenhagen. We then boarded a bus to Aarhus, where many games of cards were played and many naps were taken. 10 minutes away from the handball academy one of the bus' tires popped, and we were shortly transferred to a new bus. When we arrived everyone at the academy welcomed us; we were very excited to start our handball academy experience. For supper we enjoyed a delicious chicken dinner prepared by the gourmet chefs here at the academy. That night the girls teams had the opportunity to practice with German coach Jan Lucas. It's safe to say that after practice we ... read more

29.6.2013 Århus Finally we have gotten to this point; we are actually on our big trip, going to travel around the world during the next year! The last weeks before our departure on June 28th were very hectic, the last days especially. We spent almost all our time either at work, or packing the apartment into boxes. Getting everything done on time meant also that we slept rather short nights during the last days at home, so we were actually rather tired when we arrived in Århus yesterday afternoon. We selected Århus as our first stop on the trip because neither of us has seen other Danish cities besided Copenhagen before, and it is also conveniently on our way to Hirtshals where our boat towards Faroe Islands leaves on Tuesday. Since arriving in Århus we have ... read more

Friday, September 9, 2011 The Emerald Princess docked in Aarhus, Denmark near at a dock within walking distance of downtown. For this reason we opted to explore the city on our own. With map in hand, we began our half hour walk from ship to town. Aarhus, like most of the towns we had visited on this cruise, had an extensive, and by appearances anyway, efficient public transportation system. The buses and trains were always arriving at stops for the locals to board. There seemed to be little wait time. A beautiful canal ran through downtown. Most of the cafes provided outdoor seating areas for their customers. And while it was early in the day, there were customers at many. The tourist info stated that Aarhus was one of the youngest populated cities in Denmark. And ... read more

So now, after months of planning, contemplating, working, saving and budgetting, inquiring about permits for every step to take and borders to cross, and a restless night at my parents house with racing thoughts and a drumming heart, I am sitting in the train to Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen), on what seems to be the first step on the long journey east, towards The City of Shiva, Kathmandu, Nepal! I've brought my polaroid-cameras including film (which I have to make sure they don't beam with x-rays in the airports) and a regular digital camera which I will be using for taking pictures for updates on this blog and for personal memento. Right now, Denmark is grey and foggy, not very warm and people are rushing towards their jobs in what seems to be a regular tuesday morning. ... read more

What a great morning today. The weather is sunny and the temperature is perfect. Before our ship arrived in the port of Aarhus, Denmark, the ship sailed through the Fjords of Denmark. I was up early as usual walking the deck watching the sunrise soaking in the beautiful and fresh air of the sea. Breakfast was in the dining room today. Had my favorite type of egg, vulcanized (or over hard) eggs. Everyone makes fun of me eating these types of eggs. We did not eat until 9:15am. A few hours we ate lunch because our tour started at 12:30pm. The ship arrived in port, Aarhus Denmark. This is a very small port compared to the other ports we have visited. Not much activity happening here. Our tour today included two important areas in Aarhus; Randers ... read more
