Hven There, Done That

One of the best parts of travelling is talking to your friends beforehand and finding out about these little out-of-the-way spots off the beaten track. My buddy Charlotte was the one who suggested this trip to the Isle of Hven, in the strait between Denmark and Sweden.

Took the ferry from Helsingor, Denmark to Hven.



This was the view from the hill of some of the houses near the western harbor. We rented some bikes and road them through the island, checking out some incredible views and old houses. In the center of the island is the Tycho Brahe museum, which was fun.

Then came the rain.

A lot of rain. Copious helpings of the wet stuff falling from the sky.



So much for our day in Hven. After waiting for the rain to stop (it didn't), we jumped on our bikes and rode through the pouring rain back to the boat. Head to toe drenched in water. A fun experience, even though the weather didn't cooperate.

Which catches me up on my blogging. After two wonderful weeks in Copenhagen, the Eugene World Tour moves on tomorrow morning. More updates to come.
