I started my danish class which is very nice but very time consuming - I feel like I can carry on a sort of normal conversation in danish now as long as the person I'm talking with enunciates and doesn't leave any words out (as the danes have a habit of doing).
A few weekends ago we went to Lalandia with Morten's whole family. It is a big indoor waterpark on another island (north, close to Germany). We stayed in a cabin and Morten and I got the loft. It was a bit cramped but we made it work. It was fun to go swimming and spend time with the family.
I discovered that roadtripping in Denmark is different than in Texas.

And instead of this...
You get this!
Here are some pictures from the trip...
This is Alex and Natascha coming out of the biggest water slide. I didn't take as many pictures at the water park as I would have liked to - there was kind of a lot of water everywhere.
We also made a little afternoon trip to Germany. There weren't any cities close by so the main purpose of our trip was to go to the shop where chocolate was about half the cost that it is in DK. The boat ride was fun, though a bit tempestuous.
Translation: if strange people come flying at your family from all sides, go right!
Hanging out...
This is the ladder up to the loft in the cabin where we slept:

On the drive home we took a detour to Møns klint. It is really beautiful there but that day was really foggy so we couldn't see much of the cliff. It was really cool in kind of a spooky way though, and we got some interesting pictures.
