We spent 3 days visiting schools and other fun places throughout western Denmark. We we got to see how different the education systems vary within denmark and how differently they are structured in comparison to our own American education system. It was really interesting to see the strengths and weaknesses in both systems. On the first day we were in Odense, which is know for H.C. Anderson's city. He has written famous fairy tales such as the little mermaid! We got to go to the H. C. Anderson's museum and play house. every 3 years they tear down the whole inside of the building and completely reconstruct the set from one of his fairy tales. The kids can come to the house and dress up in costumes and play different characters in the fairy tale. It's completely hands on and built for kids to explore and play. We had the whole place to our selves and they allowed us to dress up and get our face painted and play as children play on the sets! It was an absolute blast. We also went canoeing and went to a rain forest where monkeys came right up to us, not in cages! It was all so much fun.
