Fregatten Jylland
Coming from an interior area in the country, I'm not used to ships and I may have not understood the importance of the Jylland. The old harbour in Ebeltoft was important long ago. Nowadays, since ships are bigger they cannot enter it. But there is the museum and the Jylland to remind us of the sailing tradition in the area.
The Jylland is said to be the world's longest wooden ship and it is. They keep on a constant care. On the other side, schools and tourists visits are held as a way to show and teach about history, whcih I found very interesting. Not only battles, but sailors' daily life, royal guests and their rooms. Imagination can be triggered by what you see and what you smell.
We went in the morning for a tourist visit and in the evening for the farewell dinner. It was lovely. A warm atmosphere, music, songs, good food and good wine. I had not mentioned I was vegetarian and I couldn't eat much. Deer and kangaroo were offered. Thankfully there was a great variety of vegetables and mushrooms. Lorenzo with his "dulzaina" would have matched there. But I sang together with the other Spanish teacher a short song.
I think, more or less, I have already given you a visual report of the visit. Questions are welcome!
Hope the Kangaroo you had today was good enough!
