Our last full day in Denmark, we spent visiting castles! First stop: the Fredricksborg Castle. There was a castle with a museum inside, but the big draw was the enormous gardens. We spent almost an hour just wandering around looking at the different designs in all the sections of the garden.

Helsingor, Hamlet’s castle, was more of a fighting castle. They had a moat, an embankment, and cannons — like they wanted to keep people out and made sure people knew it. Walking in the main gate, they had speakers embedded in the hills around the cannons and they had horses galloping by with voices yelling in battle. It was a little unexpected.

That night, we had dinner in and enjoyed some of the beers Sune and Ian had picked out earlier in the week. Then had a quiet evening and got packed up to leave in the morning.
