Happy Sunday!
Just watched a movie and had my coffee and it’s time to get started with the day.

Friday was our 22nd anniversary but we didn’t really celebrate. We came home from camping and riding our desert toys so we were tired. We ordered Uber Eats for dinner and watched a movie.

Welcome back from camping, Kathy! Happy 22nd :)[emoji173]️

So, good mornooning, friends!

Yesterday we went to a Christmas market held in Gisselfeld Castle, which boasts one of the most beautiful parks in Northern Europe.

The castle as we know it today was built in mid-1500s by Peder Oxe, the mightiest High Chancellor of Denmark. Oxe helped the king fight (and sometimes win) many wars, but at one point he fell from grace, reputedly because he was looking at the king's wife too much. He escaped to Germany, and when the king asked him to return, he brought live fish (carps) for the ponds surrounding his castle. Today these are considered the first fish farms in Denmark.

Got cheese, sausage, and a sore throat at the market. (The sore throat came in for free.) It was quite chilly, and even gløgg, steaming hot mulled wine, didn't help.
