Sep 8, 2005 - Funen, Denmark

We drove with Jennifer and Elias to spend the weekend on the island of Funen (or Fyn) which is between the island of Zealand where Copenhagen is and Jutland, the mainland of Denmark - via one of the longest bridges in the world. We toured Egeskov, one of the local castles (believe us, there are many of them!) built in the middle of a lake in 1554. ... It has amazing gardens including a fushia garden, herb garden and scent garden - as well as a 100-year old bamboo maze, originally the biggest in Europe.We drove with Jennifer and Elias to spend the weekend on the island of Funen (or Fyn) which is between the island of Zealand where Copenhagen is and Jutland, the mainland of Denmark - via one of the longest bridges in the world.
