So it officially feels like Christmas in Denmark now. We (my host family and I) made the trip down to Copenhagen to visit a very old theme park called Tivoli. The theme park during Christmas is very beautiful. Lights on all the rides, trees, and when it gets dark at 4pm you have a lot of time to soak in the beautiful lights during the night.
We got up and were out the door by 8 and we were in Copenhagen by 11, ready to start our day. We met up with other exchange students and I also randomly ran into people I knew. Denmark is a pretty small country.
I went on all the rides I could with Frida, Frederik, and Nicole and it was lovely too see Caitlin and Elyse again. I had the best time, and it was a great way to spend time with my host family. Then we left for the long drive home where everyone fell asleep fairly quickly
Vi Ses,

Hi Dillon:
You've taken some beauty photos! I've always heard of Tivoli Gardens but had no idea it was in Copenhagen. You've captured the lights at night on the rides so well - there'll be something extra coming soon in the mail to help in your photos - we missed the Christmas mailing because the surprise was not in stock and we scoured the Province and finally found it last Sunday in Barrie as I came home from visiting Grandma. The snow just keeps on coming! We'll be glad to leave it for a week. Trusting all is well and we hope you get the first package before Christmas! Mom and Andie are home now - I get off at the end of the day on Christmas Eve - Wed at 4:30 and will have to go straight to Church! Cry for me.
Love Dad!!
