spent with good company.

It seems like I start off most of my posts apologizing for the lack of writing that I do on my blog, and yet again I shall apologize. I often think “Oh I should really write how my week was on my blog” but I just never get around to it. Since the last time I posted a lot has happened. I shall try and reminisce about it all.

On the tenth of October it was Thanksgiving in Canada and my host mor suggested that we should try and cook a typical Canadian Thanksgiving dinner, so I asked my mom from home to send me recipes on how to cook everything, seeing as I had never cooked one before. All in all the dinner was delicious and was spent with good company. Min bedste ven Ana, fra Brasilien, came to eat with us and my host bror had his friend Morten come over. It was delicious, the stuffing tasted like home, but unfortunately the cranberries were a little funky tasting and the pumpkin pie was not as satisfying as it was at home.

Last week we had our autumn holiday week, so min familie took me to Bornholm. It is a island apart of Danmark. We had to drive to Sweden and catch a ferry and then we arrived on Bornholm. Bornholm looks totally different than the rest of Danmark, it is more rocky and just more nature filled. It was BEAUTIFUL! The pictures taken cannot do it justice, I really fell in love with this little island and will definitely be returning. We left Sunday morning and returned Thursday evening. One of my exchange friends, Katy from Indiana, lives on Bornholm, so we spent Wednesday together and she showed me her town Rønne, which was really nice. It was so good to see her and catch up. Min familie og jeg også explored the island a lot. The first day we went on this long walk and it was beautiful, the ocean view was breathtaking. We also went to Hammerhus, which is a ruin, it was also such a beautiful view. On the more crappy weather day we went to a museum and it had dinosaurs, which instantly made me fall in love. Bornholm is actually the only place in Danmark where traces of dinosaurs have been found, how cool, eh? In Bornholm there was a lot of places with glass blowing, so we saw a lot of pretty and expensive glass, but it was so cool to see them make it and see finished products. We also went to the highest point on Bornholm…not very high, but still very cool. You had the perfect view from standing that high up. We also went to this beach, it was really really nice, I will go there in the summer for sure, when we were there the whole time I just wanted to jump in and go swimming. I also discovered that I love jellyfish, I had never seen one in real life until that week and when I told my familie og min venner, they were so shocked because apparently there are tons of them in Danmark. My host bror even said he will get me one for my birthday, so I shall be waiting for that ;) The Saturday night that we had in the holiday my friend Mara, who is American, came over so we could make our costumes for the rotary get together this weekend, since it is for hallowe’en. I am actually so excited for this because a) I LOVE hallow'en and b) it will be nice to see my friends again.

So I am going to sum this up and say goodbye. I will inform you on how my get together goes, it shall be a hoot though and until I write again, enjoy. :)
