We tooked a day trip to Mykines because we wanted to see puffins. And the trip was a success. We saw thousands of puffins. All puffin species have predominantly black or black and white plumage, a stocky build, and large beaks. Their short wings are adapted for swimming with a flying technique under water. In the air, they beat their wings rapidly (up to 400 times per minute) in swift flight, often flying low over the ocean's surface. #faroeislands Puffin, Rapids, Day Trip, Swift, Flight

The Faroe Islands are very nice place - calm and beautiful. The land is rugged and has a subpolar oceanic climate: windy, wet, cloudy and cool. Despite its northerly latitude, temperatures average above freezing throughout the year due to the Gulf Stream. #faroeislands Gulfstream, Nice Place, Cloudy, Temperatures

Maybe the most idyllic place in Faroe Island is Saksun. Saksun is a very small village. Saksun lies in the bottom of what used to be an inlet of the sea, surrounded by high mountains. The inlet formed a good deep natural harbour, until a storm blocked it with sand. The old harbour become an unaccessible seawater lagoon, only accessible by small boats on high tide. #faroeislands

Aarhus is the second-largest city in Denmark and located on the Jutland peninsula. It take three hours from Copenhagen to Aarhus by train. 315,000 people live in Aarhus and 1.2 million people live in the greater Aarhus area. There is a lot of old houses both apartment buildings and detached houses. Almost all of them was builded of bricks. A facade was red bricks and a inner court yellow ones. The reason was rational - yellow brics are cheaper. Brics, Odense, Red Bricks, Apartment Building, City Life, Oslo, Detached House

A very nice place to spend a day is only a few kilometers from Aarhus city center. The park of deers. We have a sac full of carrots with us but deers were already full. In the park where were also wild boars. Luckily behind two fences. A route from the park to centre was beautiful and we saw nice looking houses alongside the sea.

Danish love to ride a bike. You can see cyclists riding very fast and without helmets everywhere. In Finland we have to secure our heads. We are almost like criminals if we don't use helmets - it really is illegal. Cyclists, Illegal, Bike Ride, Helmets, Finland

We got a great view over Copenhagen from the Round Tower. It was built in a 17th-century and located in central Copenhagen. Originally it was an astronomical observatory. It is most noted for its 7½-turn helical corridor leading to the top. Astronomical Observatory, Round Tower, Corridor, Great View, 17th Century

The cutest thing in the Round Tower was a little bench - Kyssebenken. We have to say that it was a good place to kiss. Almost on the top of Copenhagen. Take A Break, Benches, Sit, Sayings
