It doesn't take much to tempt me.

Ryanair are again doing one of their free flights offer (closes tonight, not including 'charges' and 'taxes'), so we looked at their destination list. Top, naturally, came Ã…rhus (also written as Aarhus), a city in Jutland.

Having seen [livejournal.com profile] major_clanger's trip report, we looked at each other, said "OK", and went for it. So, early next year, as a birthday treat, that's where we're going.

I like the way that one of the local high points is Himmelbjerget (or Sky Mountain), at 147 metres high. Hmm, that's a single metre higher than the highest point in Cambridgeshire, not exactly notorious for its hilliness. Guess Denmark is not for mountaineers, then.

I believe the highest point in Denmark is now the top of one of the towers of the Great Belt Bridge. I find this very amusing.
If you get bored you can go to Copenhagen on the fast train, too.

I'd quite fancy that (I have a ghost or two to lay), but have just checked and it takes 3 hours each way :-(
