A peaceful Sunday

We had a lovely peaceful Sunday. It started with a long lie in. Our church was closed today due to so many people being on holiday. So we spent the morning here at home relaxing and holding our own sort of church service by listening to some teaching over the internet. 


Just after lunch we headed to Hillerød. Leah and her friend were going to see Harry Potter and so after leaving them of at the cinema we headed up to the castle to have a look around. We decided that we would go in and explore. In all the years that we have lived here we have never been inside the castle. 


When we arrived there were soooo many tourists!! We could have made believe that we were in Rome, there were sooo many Italians! I wanted to pretend that the castle was the Vatican and try and sneak around with the big Italian group - however Kristian would not go along with it!! (spoil sport!haha)


Anyway we decided there were just too many people and we really didn´t want to see the place with soooo many people around. 


We will go back on a week day and see if it is any better, although I doubt it. I think we might have to wait until September, a bit out of the holiday season.  Anyway we had a lovely walk around the grounds. 


Kristian was very happy to hang out with these two ladies!! haha (Jeff if you`re reading this the ladies made us think of you and Campbell! Brought back good memories!)


We then walked through the town and decided we would go get a coffee/coke, but when we got inside the cafe I decided I wanted something more! As usual I was hungry! It didn´t take Kristian long to change his mind and swap his coffee out with a Salmon Bruschetta. I had a lovely prawn salad. Both were really delicious!


We ended the afternoon driving around some of the places we have lived over the last 21 years. There were many happy memories to talk about. We were like two old people out for our Sunday drive! 
Finally it was time to pick up the girls and head home again. 


A lovely relaxing Sunday afternoon. The bonus was the down pour that we had when we arrived home! The heavens opened and we enjoyed watching the rain sitting all cosy at home.
