    Wow, how did I ever miss this thread! Beautiful pictures Randi! I look forward to taking a walk over there myself...if I ever get to Denmark.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    As you know, I often go for a walk at the churchyard, there are so many pretty sights, and it's so peaceful.

    This time, I'll attach some pictures I took recently. There are so many different trees, some very old.

    Randi, it looks so peaceful and beautiful there..........I can understand why you want to spend time there.

    Some of the statues are beautiful. It also looks as though it is a huge area - more like a park than a cemetary.

    Randi,

    I have always been fascinated by cemeteries. I love looking at the stones to see the ages of the people that passed away.

    What a beautiful place it is! Thanks for sharing such beautiful pictures.

    Thought I’d share some more pictures from the cemetary across the road, where I go for a walk, and to visit John almost every day.

    We had a storm last week, and one of the big trees just outside the cemetary didn’t make it. It is in the process of being cut down.



    Not far from the entrance is Niels Bohr’s grave, it’s on the path framed with tall poplar trees - and where it’s allowed to cycle.



    Going a little further down to the left is this nice statue of a lady.



    There are beautiful trees and bushes along the way.



    And just before going into the next section is a funny little statue of a boy. Look at that shadow!
