Friday:
We visited the train museum located right downtown. Since the kids on Fyn have this week off as winter break they had extra toys set out (all sorts of train sets - Thomas, Geotracks, Barbie, Playmobile, Lego). They also had these muppets scattered about but Peter decided they all needed to be in one place.

Saturday:
I can't remember why, but Peter has taken an interest in cacti lately. So for his Valentine's Day gift we let him pick out a couple, and make a hygge little desert-scape. We also made some cheesy bread. Its a pain to get decent bread here, so I think we're going to try to start making our own more often. And from the looks of the always empty flour pallet at the grocery - it seems lots of people have the same idea.
Sunday:
We went down to Svendborg and showed dad what Naturama is all about (stuffed animals - taxidermy, not fluff).

The special exhibit right now is some animal/fantasy art by some famous Danish guy - Hans Somebodyorother. You go into a dark room, and when you poke your head through the holes you can see yourself in the picture via a mirror.

Monday:
We were having trouble deciding what to do. It has been sneeting all day, so we needed something indoors - and we chose the reptile zoo Terrariet i Vissenbjerg.

So, this isn't the clearest photo, but in the water is this extremely large turtle, with a head that looks like a leaf. We think it might be something we've read about in our rain forest book - the Matamata turtle.
While we were there, the animals were being fed. Salad for turtles, grasshoppers for lizards...Peter diligently waited by the *kitchen* and then followed the young blond zookeeper around to each cage until she was done.
Whew - what a workout. And, after days of
going going going,
Peter wants to just
play play play.
My little enegizer bunny.
