@ Denmark Roskilde Cathedral
"LEGO was invented by Ole Kirk Christiansen in the town of Billund in 1949," said Cinnamon.
"Did he hand it over to his son, Young Kirk Christiansen?" responded WHOOO"S A HOOT wittily.
"WHOOO"S A HOOT! Behave!"
Denmark Roskilde Cathedral
Located in Rosklide, the Luthern Cathedral is the official royal burial of the church for Danish monarchs. Here you can learn about 800 plus years of history and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995. Grab your travel partner and descend to the catacombs, be sure to watch out for ghosts!

@ Denmark Nyhavn City Scape
"Listen to this, Ailfric! The business of a Danish carpenter in the 1930s went under, so he began to make toys out of his stock of wood. One of them, a small wooden duck, was loved by his children so much that he decided to put them into production to sell. Guess what his company is called now?"
"I don't know, what is it, Cinnamon?"
"Lego! It just proves the old saying, Out of adversity comes opportunity."
Denmark Nyhavn City Scape
The old city has been renovated from the old red light district sailors visited and flop houses! Now travelers can listen to music on the sidewalks and enjoy cold ale on a summer day. Different styles and cultures of fare for those wanting to try new cuisines are available as well.

@ Denmark at the Sea
"According to our tour guide, Snickerdoodle, the two oldest amusement parks in the world are in Denmark! How's that for a fun fact? Denmark is home to the world's oldest amusement park, Bakken, as well as the second oldest one, Tivoli Gardens. Bakken is just a short 20 minute train ride from Copenhagen central station and Tivoli Gardens is located just on the opposite side of the street from the station in the centre of Copenhagen."
"Sounds great, Cinnamon! Everypet enjoys the Fairground—well, except those that aren't so keen on rollercoasters!"

Denmark at the Sea
Breathing deep the briny air, watching the gulls float and dip on the horizon, kissed by the sun's promising rainbow, you can shed the days stresses and curl your toes in the sand and relax.

@ Denmark Cold Ocean Rocks
"Listen to this, Choose a name! The business of a Danish carpenter in the 1930s went under, so he began to make toys out of his stock of wood. One of them, a small wooden duck, was loved by his children so much that he decided to put them into production to sell. Guess what his company is called now?"
"I don't know, what is it, Cinnamon?"
"Lego! It just proves the old saying, Out of adversity comes opportunity."
Denmark Cold Ocean Rocks
Cold ocean breezes whip off the coast, chilling the traveler to the bone, but the stark beauty of a black and white contrast amazes those who seek to see it.

@ Denmark Sea Grass Dunes
"If we were here just a couple of months later, Princess, we might be able to experience the Black Sun," remarked Cinnamon, studying the brochure.
"Whatever is that, Cinnamon?"
"It sounds a bit strange, but the Black Sun is when, each spring and autumn, hundreds of thousands of starlings gather at the Wadden Sea National Park and create incredible patterns in the sky at dusk!"
"It sounds amazing!" said Princess.

Denmark Sea Grass Dunes
Visiting the North Shore, the azure blue sea and sky blend effortlessly on the horizon. Grab your binoculars and see what you can see frolicking on the waves!

@ Denmark Seaside Staircase
What do you mean, unicorns don’t exist? Don’t say that to us in Denmark. Our land of everyday wonder has unicorns to spot in the most unlikely places, from street corners to throne rooms, and it’s one of the best countries in the world for unicorn hunting, even if we do say so ourselves.
Denmark Seaside Staircase
Be sure you have your PetBit on when you climb this set of stairs, and unless you want to spend the day on the stairs instead of enjoying the beach, be sure you don't forget your flip flops and sunscreen in the car!

@ Denmark North Sea Wild Waves
"Oh, wow, Tilly ♡! In Copenhagen we'll be going to a bright pink café called Unicorns & Rainbows! It serves ice cream sprinkled with edible flowers and crumbled meringue, and has its very own pink unicorn on the wall. It says it's the perfect food for unicorns and unicorn hunters alike!"
"I'll certainly look forward to that, Cinnamon!"
Denmark North Sea Wild Waves
The thundering roar of the sea can be felt when it crashes into the shore. From the foamy spray to the vibrations of noise zipping through, you want to keep your paws firmly planted away from the rage of salty sea washing over the beach.

@ Denmark Shell Beach
"Hey, look at this advertisement, Bubble T! You can have mermaid-swimming lessons in Copenhagen!"
"That sounds amazing, Cinnamon!"
Denmark Shell Beach
If you're a driftwood collector or for shells, this beach is a treasure trove. Just remember that you won't be able to get them through customs with them.

@ Denmark at Sunset
"One reason for the Danes' happiness is the importance of hygge, the Danish way of enjoying quality time with friends and family. It can be many things, such as candle-lit dinners, wine, relaxed nights in. It's hard to explain," said Cinnamon.
"Well, we certainly came across it this time last year in the Huskies, Hijinks and Hygge experience! We had some very cosy chats with all the pets over hot chocolate by the fire every evening in our accommodation!" replied Elvis.

Denmark at Sunset
Another sunset, another day in the books of traveling around Denmark, what will be your next adventure? Oh, wait, there's always the night life to explore!

@ Denmark Jutland Beach Path
"Cycling is awfully popular here in Denmark, isn't it?" remarked Cinnamon, looking out of the coach window.
"Apparently nine out of ten Danes own a bicycle, and they have 7500 miles' worth (12,000 km) of cycle lanes throughout the country," responded Choose a name.

Denmark Jutland Beach Path
Take the path set before you, or forge your own?

@ Denmark Lyngvig Light House
"Take a look at this, Choose a name! It says that Bluetooth technology takes its name from Danish King Harald Bluetooth, also known as Harald I. The Bluetooth symbol is a combination of the Viking runes for “H” and “B”."
"Wow, I never knew that, Cinnamon!"
Denmark Lyngvig Light House
Built in 1906 on the West Coast of Jutland, standing in the stairwell of this historical Light House makes one think they are inside a Nautilus shell. The starkness of blue and white draws the eye upward to the top, but do your paws have the stamina to take it all the way to to the apex?

@ Denmark Moulded Wax Agave Flowers
"Take a look at this, Aria! It says that Bluetooth technology takes its name from Danish King Harald Bluetooth, also known as Harald I. The Bluetooth symbol is a combination of the Viking runes for “H” and “B”."
"Wow, I never knew that, Cinnamon!"
Denmark Moulded Wax Agave Flowers
Growing in the sunlight in the town of Billund, the birthplace of those famous locking bricks, it's natural beauty lends to the landscape, it's petals look much like they're about to blow you a kiss! Catch!

@ Denmark Øresund Bridge at Sunset
What do you mean, unicorns don’t exist? Don’t say that to us in Denmark. Our land of everyday wonder has unicorns to spot in the most unlikely places, from street corners to throne rooms, and it’s one of the best countries in the world for unicorn hunting, even if we do say so ourselves.
Denmark Øresund Bridge at Sunset
Situated between Sweden and Denmark, this bridge services the automobile and train alike. Stretching across the Øresund Sound it's a beautiful sight at Sunset, combining the natural beauty of nature and the imagination of man, creating a scene of tranquility.

@ Denmark Kronborg Castle Street Scene
Oh look ... you won a pet!
Denmark Kronborg Castle Street Scene
Did you struggle having to study Hamlet at school? Well, just 45 minutes by train from Copenhagen is a town that will make Elsinore Castle a reality. Helsingør (alternative name Elsinore) is a port in eastern Denmark. Its 15th-century Castle Kronborg provided the setting for Shakespeare’s famous tragedy. The nearby Maritime Museum of Denmark illustrates 600 years of Danish seafaring history.

@ Denmark Søndervig Sand Festival
"Today's trivia question, Sophia! What is special about the Danish flag?" asked Cinnamon.
Sophia considered this. "Flag of Denmark. White cross on a red field. You know, when I can't sleep, I list in my head all the national flags in the world that use red and white only—there's about twenty of them, you know. Then I go on to blue and white—I'm digressing. I don't know; what's the answer?"
"The Danish flag, the Dannebrog remains the oldest state flag in the world still in use by an independent nation. It has been recognised as in use from 1219," replied Cinnamon.
Denmark Søndervig Sand Festival
Travelers will be wowed by the amazing sand artists at the Søndervig festival held at one of Denmark's oldest beach town. Traditional sand sculptures can be found, but the creativity of removing sand, rather than building it, is a beautiful creative flair!

@ Colourful Village, Faroe Islands
What do you mean, unicorns don’t exist? Don’t say that to us in Denmark. Our land of everyday wonder has unicorns to spot in the most unlikely places, from street corners to throne rooms, and it’s one of the best countries in the world for unicorn hunting, even if we do say so ourselves.
Colourful Village, Faroe Islands
There are 123 villages on the 18 Faroe Islands. Most of the villages are situated near the ocean, which is to be expected from a fishing nation. The houses are close together and most will be colourful though some will be the traditional black. Many houses will also have a turf roof.

@ Lush Green, Faroe Islands
"Hey, look at this advertisement, Nutsy Mouse! You can have mermaid-swimming lessons in Copenhagen!"
"That sounds amazing, Cinnamon!"
Lush Green, Faroe Islands
The vibrant green of spring and summer in the Faroe Islands. All the islands are covered by this lush green grass in spring and summer, with the arrival of fall the grass turns into a carpet of brown. A small stream heads under a culvert and goes on its way to the ocean.

@ Remote Wilderness, Faroe Islands
"It says in our brochure that Danish design is famed for its simplicity and beauty, and that an uncluttered environment is conducive to happiness," said Cinnamon.
"I think that's very true!" replied Blástjarna.
Remote Wilderness, Faroe Islands
If you were a writer or an artist or someone who was comfortable with your own thoughts this would be the ideal place to call home.

@ Eysturoy, Faroe Islands
"It says in our brochure that Danish design is famed for its simplicity and beauty, and that an uncluttered environment is conducive to happiness," said Cinnamon.
"I think that's very true!" replied Orchid.
Eysturoy, Faroe Islands
East Island, the second largest of the Faroe Islands and another very important bird area. You may recognize this from the James Bond movie No Time To Die, which was filmed starting in 2018. Many locations were used around the Faroe Islands for the movie.

@ Rocky Shore, Faroe Islands
What do you mean, unicorns don’t exist? Don’t say that to us in Denmark. Our land of everyday wonder has unicorns to spot in the most unlikely places, from street corners to throne rooms, and it’s one of the best countries in the world for unicorn hunting, even if we do say so ourselves.
Rocky Shore, Faroe Islands
Volcanic eruptions over millions of years have built up the Faroe Islands. There are three layers of basalt, a dark grey igneous rock. The formations of basalt are exposed everywhere on the islands and anyone interested in geology is sure to want to pay a visit.

@ Village, Faroe Islands
"If we were here just a couple of months later, fresh, we might be able to experience the Black Sun," remarked Cinnamon, studying the brochure.
"Whatever is that, Cinnamon?"
"It sounds a bit strange, but the Black Sun is when, each spring and autumn, hundreds of thousands of starlings gather at the Wadden Sea National Park and create incredible patterns in the sky at dusk!"
"It sounds amazing!" said fresh.

Village, Faroe Islands
Another fantastic landscape was also used in the Bond film, No Time To Die. When you see stunning scenes like this it is no wonder this location was chosen. The Faroe Islands are made up of 18 major islands and 779 smaller islands, islets and skerries. A skerry is a rock island too small for humans to live on but often used by seabirds as nesting sites.

@ Boat At Rest, Faroe Islands
"According to our tour guide, Stella, the two oldest amusement parks in the world are in Denmark! How's that for a fun fact? Denmark is home to the world's oldest amusement park, Bakken, as well as the second oldest one, Tivoli Gardens. Bakken is just a short 20 minute train ride from Copenhagen central station and Tivoli Gardens is located just on the opposite side of the street from the station in the centre of Copenhagen."
"Sounds great, Cinnamon! Everypet enjoys the Fairground—well, except those that aren't so keen on rollercoasters!"

Boat At Rest, Faroe Islands
A highly visible red boat rests on one of the many shores in the Faroe Islands. It could belong to a fisherperson or just a quick way to get around instead of travelling overland. Fishing is the main industry accounting for 96 percent of goods exported.

@ Saksun, Island of Streymoy
"If we were here just a couple of months later, Kitty, we might be able to experience the Black Sun," remarked Cinnamon, studying the brochure.
"Whatever is that, Cinnamon?"
"It sounds a bit strange, but the Black Sun is when, each spring and autumn, hundreds of thousands of starlings gather at the Wadden Sea National Park and create incredible patterns in the sky at dusk!"
"It sounds amazing!" said Kitty.

Saksun, Island of Streymoy
Streymoy is the largest island in the Faroe Islands and Saksun is a tiny remote village nestled between high mountains overlooking a circular lagoon. The lagoon was once a harbour but a storm filled the harbour with sand and formed the lagoon which fills with seawater from the Northern Atlantic Ocean, twice a day. A truly stunning place.

@ Sea Stacks, Gjógv, Faroe Islands
As Cinnamon's tour of "Denmark" comes to an end, he receives a seasonally appropriate gift!
Pastel Winter Rainbow
What a delight this rainbow is. How delicate the pastel colours are. These are also sometimes called Sundogs but I don’t find that a very fitting name for these beauties of nature. By whatever name you call these you and your pets will love to explore all the uses you can put these to in your art. They would make a wonderful slide, whee all the way down from a puffy snow cloud. Who wants to go first?
Sea Stacks, Gjógv, Faroe Islands
When wind and rain work their magic over a very long period of time they erode the land leaving behind these dramatic pillars and arches of basalt.
Cinnamon has completed his tour of "Denmark"! Please select another pet as visitor, so it can also tour Scandinavia!
