Yesterday, we experienced our first adventure on European trains. We took a six hour trip from Winschoten, Netherlands to Flensburg, Germany. This included changing trains 5 times. Except for a five minute delay, all trains were on time to the minute (take note Amtrak). Our friends, Shawn and Amy Kenny and their children, Justin and Lane, picked us up at the train station in Flensburg. The Kenny's are from Iowa but presently live in Augustenborg, Denmark. We have had a delightful time learning about life in Denmark from their 
perspective (a very positive experience for them).
We started today with a fifteen minute walk to and from the bakery getting Danish pasteries for breakfast. Healthy? But they sure were good!
We spent time today in the neighboring town of Sonderborg, touring a fort, turned castle, turned museum; walking through the 
city and along the beach.
The evening meal was shared with some Danish/Swiss friends and their children. Good company and good meal.
Tomorrow, after attending church with them, we head back to Holland.
Mike and Shawn just finished watching Iowa State lose to Iowa on Gamecast from ESPN. For Shawn, Amy and Mike; situation normal.
Bye for now.
Oh yeah. The "Good Humor" boat serves people along the harbor front.
