We were a bit of a local curiosity in Scandinavia. Most
Americans sailing in Europe stick to the Mediterranean, with its long summers
and hot weather. In Copenhagen, there were Americans everywhere, but many of the
coastal towns we have visited attract tourists primarily from neighboring
European countries, including Scandinavia, Germany and the Netherlands. We were
interviewed by the local newspaper in Åbenrå, which was writing a feature
about the newly-opened cybercafé. We never did get a copy of that article,
but three papers in Fåborg promised to write about us, and we saw the results
for two of them (the third was to come out after we left.) We're proud, we
think, even though we don't understand a word they said.
