Sept 12 - Pjedsted, Denmark

Left Odense about 9 am. I decided to take the back roads today. I found out how much you miss on the big highways. I passed through one remote village that I'm sure has no tourist traffic. There was this cute six year old boy, as dirty as he could be, holding a newly picked bouquet of purple flowers. Both eyes staring wide at me. Denmark is alive and moving. Flowers color the landscape. Hellow fields of wheat lay readay for harvesting or burning.

Arrived in Pjedsted about 1:30 and had coffee. Went to see "Casino Royale."

P.S. Send three rosettes.

Sept 11 - Odense, Denmark

Left Korsor on the 8:30 ferry for Nyberg. Cycled into Odense in 1.5 hours. Had lunch and went downtown. Saw Hans Christian Anderson's house and museum, the cathedral, and the natural museum. Returned on the bus and scooter and had dinner. Cleaned up the bike and wrote. Watched TV and read "The Inheritors." Looked at slides of Sweden and Denmark.
