Bornholm

We took a 'Family Trip' with some of our friends from Copenhagen International School Bornholm (An island east of Denmark in the Baltic Sea .) It was a wonderful extended weekend of sand, rocks, glass and friendship.



My friend, Trude.


Preston is happy as a lark because he's holding a bag of chocolates!






The sand on Dueodde beach is superfine and was exported for use in hourglasses.


Hunting for treasure.


2 men, 3 fishing poles and 0 fish!


My dear friends, Mirjam (Dutch)and Trude (Norwegian).



Part of the gang......


....the rest of the gang.


Stein Ove (Norwegian), Jeroen (Dutch) and Bob.




Every road runs into the sea.









We even found monkeys on the island!







The largest prehistoric carved rock found on Bornholm.


A jolly 'ol fellow.


Tour Guide.





Hammerhus - medieval fortress ruins.




Osterlars - the largest of 4 round churches.


Bornholm is well known for their herring smokehouses.
