Denmark Cont




Denmark Continued
Tonder, Meldetonder, and Ribe.
Had a day or two of Just driving around. Unfortunately I didn't have the camera on our first visit to Tonder, which was on dusk when the lights went on in the square, and they had the full Christmas lights on it was amazing.
The next town is the old town where it was thatched roofs and old buildings, an amazing main street, freezing cold though the streams and ponds frozen over to a lesser or greater extent. Then we drove along the dykes, heading north up the west coast, and ended up in Ribe pronounced (Rebay). It was the capital of Denmark before Copenhagen. I have a photo of the old church, and the streams trough the township, it's sort of in the middle of nowhere but lots of tourists there with beautiful little shops.

Unfortunately that was it for sightseeing, I have done something a while ago to my back, and its been getting steadily getting worse, but two days ago it flared up that i could not sit down lie down stand walk, with the spasms. So the last two days I'm on painkillers, and anti inflammatory pills. I have never been in so much pain for so long. Popped a sleeping pill last night and I am still really taking it easy, and have had to stay on here in Denmark, we are so blessed we are at Gert and Sabines, as they have been really helpful, and keep opening up there home to us till I am better. Thank you Jesus.
