Meget længe siden / A long time ago

Hele min barndom boede jeg i Nordsjælland. Jeg gik i skole i Hillerød og tog hver dag toget i skole fra denne her "station". Jeg tror man skulle have været der for at have hørt om Duemose...

Min nevø er flyttet til Nordsjælland og jeg skulle op at besøge dem for første gang, så jeg tog den gammelkendte tur gennem Gribskov. Der er så fint deroppe, men jeg er godt nok glad for ikke at bo så langt væk mere.....

My entire childhood I lived in North Zealand. I went to school in Hillerød and every day I went to school with the train from this "station". I guess you must have been there to know Duemose....

My nephew moved to North Zealand and I was going to visit them for the first time, so I took the well known trip through the forest, Gribskov. It's so pretty up there, but I'm really happy that I am not living that far away anymore.....

Vi boede en kilometer fra stationen. En kilometer uden gadelygter, altså. Jeg kan mest bare huske at det var vinter og mørkt! Der var ikke specielt varmt i læskuret, men man kunne jo altid finde læ på den ene eller anden side. Det kan jo så umuligt have været vinter og mørkt hele tiden i virkeligheden. Sjovt, hvad man husker! 

Men der er virkelig fint oppe ved skoven og fint længere oppe ved kysten. Men man skal altså have en bil for at komme rundt i Nordsjælland på en nemmere måde.

Jeg glæder mig over nu at have en grund til at komme deropad!

We lived a kilometer from the station. There were no street lights, mind you. I mostly just remember it being winter and dark! The shelter wasn't warm at all, but it was always possible to find at least one side of it with shelter from the wind. So it couldn't possibly be winter and dark all the time. Funny what you remember!

But it's so pretty up there in and at the forest, and really pretty at the coast. But you really need a car to get around North Zealand a bit easier. 

I am happy that I now have a reason to get up there a bit more often!
