The Big Hill


Denmark is Flat.  Really flat.  Except for a few of these hills that seem to pop up here and there.  Come to find out, they are basically covered over dumps.  We kept hearing everyone talk about this Hill we should go to, where you can see all around the area.  The girls had both gone with their school groups, but we had yet to go as a family.  So, one Saturday, we set out to find the big hill.  It was a beautiful ride through the surrounding forest, then the land opens up into just grassy fields and the hill.  It's gated all the way around it because they graze sheep on the land.  They were pretty friendly sheep, letting us go up to them, pet them and feed them.  We made quick time up to the top and enjoyed the view for a while.  It was super windy!  But, it was fun to be able to see all the way into Copenhagen and even across the channel to Sweden.  We didn't stay up the hill too long, because of the storm moving in, but it was a fun little outing.  We have really enjoyed exploring the area right around us.
