Skt. Hans

I går var det Skt. Hans, og for en gangs skyld skulle jeg ikke tidligt op på arbejde næste morgen OG jeg havde gæster med bil!

Så vi tog op til Nordsjælland og kiggede rundt. Det var SÅ hyggeligt!

Den unge amerikaner kunne godt lide Frederiksborg Slot, og vi andre var temmelig tilfredse med at han tog billeder.

Yesterday was Saint John (Johannes shortened to Hans in Danish), the midsummer celebration, and for once, I didn't have to get up early for work next day AND I had visitors with a car!

So we went to Northern Zealand and looked around. It was SO nice!

The young American liked Frederiksborg Castle, and all we old people loved watching him taking photos. 

Vi kørte videre op til Heatherhill, den smukke lille naturpark helt oppe ved kysten, hvor jeg sidst var for temmelig mange år siden. Tror måske det var 15-20 år siden sidst. 

Den var lige så lille og lige så smuk som jeg huskede. Der er bare fint deroppe ved kysten.

We went on to Heatherhill, the beautiful small area very close to the coast, that I last visited a lot of years ago. I believe it was like 15-20 years ago. 

It was as tiny and beautiful as I remember. It's so pretty by the coast. 

Vi tog videre langs kysten for at prøve at finde et Skt. Hans bål. Ved Hornbæk stoppede vi og var virkelig heldige - der var fint, stort bål med midsommer-sangen og den flotteste solnedgang. 

Det var den smukkeste Skt. Hans aften i flere år og i det bedste selskab. Nu bliver dagene så kortere igen. Det er lidt trist, men sådan er årets cyklus jo... 

We went on along the coast, trying to find a bonfire. At Hornbæk, we stopped and were lucky - there was a nice, big bonfire with the midsummer song and the most amazing sunset. 

It was the most beautiful Skt. Hans I had for years, and spent in the best company. So from now on, the days will become shorter again. It's a bit sad, but that is how the cycle of the year goes......
