Blarney Bubbles Rotating Story from Denmark

Hello, here I am again!!!

I have been to Denmark for the first time in my life – very nice!!!

I came to a school in Esbjerg, Praestegaardsskolen – and attended 5B with many lovely kids – I really enjoyed being with them and they treated me very respectfully.

One day we went to another school to watch a funny play with a teenage boy who had lots of problems. There were many other children there too – and another day we were lucky to listen to a wonderful concert with some big funny boys full of music, but, believe me or not, it was much funnier to watch the children learn Danish and Maths in their classroom.

When the Christmas holidays started I went to Amalie’s home. We celebrated Christmas on the 24th of December starting with decorating the Christmas tree in the morning. Later in the evening when all the guests had arrived we had Christmas dinner with duck, red cabbage and rice pudding, danced around the Christmas tree singing carols and then came the BIG MOMENT where everybody unpacked his or her Christmas presents. Amalie got among other things a splendid keyboard. The rest of the evening we spent in each other’s company enjoying it with delicious assorted chocolates and coke.

One week later New Year’s Eve arrived. Everybody celebrated again with nice food and a lot of drinking – baaaaaaaaaaa. We listened to the Danish Queen making her annual speech to the Danish people. At midnight we went outside into the dark to watch the sparkling fireworks!! The sky was lit up with many different colours – what a spectacular sight, Amalie’s family also sent up fireworks.

Then back to school – the year was now 2009 – I have also slept a lot due to so many dark hours especially in Amalie’s bed with her lovely dog.

But now I am looking forward to going to Belgium and being re-united with all the people in the Comenius Project and hoping for new adventures.



Yours
