At Aarhus we walked through the open air museum of old houses which had been taken apart and reassembled, coming from all over Denmark. It was something like Mystic Seaport or Williamsburg.
A prehistory museum had artifacts from the stone age and up. We were most impressed with the well-preserved man who had lived about the time of Christ. His throat had been slit, and he was thrown in a peat bog where the tanic acid kept his body in such shape that scientists could identify the seeds he’d eaten just before he died.
In Odense we lost all track of time reading all the labels in the Hans Christian Anderson museum. The poor fellow was indigent when young, fell in love three times, but never married, and lived most of his life staying with well-to-do people who befriended him. He repaid his hosts by entertaining them with stories, giving them his drawings, and cutting fancy paper shapes for them.
We saw the cathedral in Odense and discovered an organ concert scheduled for that evening. We ate at our motel, then went to hear the largest church organ in Denmark. Beautiful.

For dinner at the motel John and I had plaice fillets bonne femme with onion and mushroom sauce, boiled potatoes and home made ice cream with fruit sauce.

The houses look beautiful. I’m glad they were all saved. Stop eating, my tummy is rumbling again.

That is so amazing about bog man. Now I want to learn more…I found https://www.ancient-origins.net/ancient-places-europe/tollund-man-preserved-face-prehistoric-denmark-and-tale-ritual-098888 but I don’t think it’s the same since this one seemed to be hung rather than spliced. Fascinating. Glad they stopped that sort of thing in most places.

Not sure I should have *liked* that? But it is so intriguing. And the peaceful faces on the sacrificials are so interesting. I think I’d be showing a bit of panic, even if I believed in the cause…

I heard an organ concert at Norte Dame when in Europe. Those old cathedrals have the most amazing acoustics!

Yes! Acoustics are amazing. Someone was practicing the organ when we were in Notre Dame. That’s not as good as going to a concert there, but it was better than nothing.
