We all woke up this morning tired from an eventful evening. After breakfast we were given two hours to start cleaning and packing for the long bus ride to Copenhagen after lunch. Sleeping bags, sheets and air mattresses were donated to a charity for homeless women and children.

We had our last rehearsal at the Holstebro school of music, where we worked on our Songbridge piece. After a very nice meal, it was time to say goodbye to the staff. To thank them we sang "Come and I Will Sing You." We also sang Happy Birthday to Aislinn; it was her Sweet 16. Soon after, we all got on the bus.

A few hours later we stopped at McDonald's and had lunch. Who knew you had to pay for ketchup in Denmark? Then we were back on the road, arriving in Copenhagen shortly after. Walking into our room at the Zzzleep In was wonderful. Finally, comfortable beds and private showers!

I can't wait to be in Camerata. It looks like you're having so much fun! When you get home, Daddy says that from now on, you will have to pay for your own ketchup...

Looks like you are having a great trip. Glad to hear the concert went well. I tried to call the Zleep inn but apparently there are no phones in the rooms. How are you all managing without cell phones and computers!! Call us in the morning whenever you get up.
Can't wait to talk to you.

Love Mom and Dad

Sorry we missed your call yesterday Nathan. Uncle Albert heard the message so we didn't even hear your voice. Try us on our cell phones tomorrow. We loved the pictures of the North Sea. We all miss you so much.

Love Mom, Dad, Molly, Abby.
