Day 61 17 September

Our last day in Denmark.  We spent this with Charlotte and went to see her mother, Inger Lise, who is in a home close to where Charlotte lives.  Inger Lise is very ill but was able to talk and recognise photographs from the Ellerman family albums which we went through with her.  She remembers Mum and how she used to write to her so she was very pleased to see us. We had lunch, left her to rest and went for a walk out to the coastline.  On our return to the home we said our goodbyes and went to Charlotte's home in Humlebaek.

Charlotte had invited her two sisters for tea so we now have met another branch of the family, Annemette and Henriette.  We shared a beautiful meal, talked heaps in English before it was time to return to the hotel and pack for tomorrow's journey.  Our Denmark experience will certainly be one to remember.

It will be an early start as we fly out at 9.20.   Tomorrow evening we will be winging our way to Hong Kong so not sure when the next blog will be written.  Will write once we are settled into our hotel and rested.  Lots of love to all.
