Ok I know it's a little late but Leah came to visit me from November 14th til the 20th. It was really a fantastic trip (well for me- she had to do all the traveling)! It was a very short trip for her as she had to finish her soccer season, and has school and ringette. But for anyone who has spent months apart from their loved one they know how much a short visit means!
Anyways, she was able to see one match against Holte, which we unfortunately lost. But got to take some exciting game shots!!
We also caught a handball match. Handball is Denmark's national sport and its kinda equivalent to Canadian in hockey -although they haven't won 5 jr championships in a row ;). However they make a big deal out of it! Our gym was packed wall to wall with fans and the place was going crazy. I'd been wanting to catch a match since i'd gotten here. Basically, it's like soccer that you try and score on nets but you can use your hands and its full contact!!!
Leah is also a fully certified climbing instructor so we planned before that she would take my girls teams climbing. The girls were pretty excited, but when we got to the facilities they were lets just say not as safety conscience as Canadian climbing gyms. They supplied harnesses but not much else- good thing Leah knew how to tie some special knot so the girls were able to climb. All in all it was tonnes of fun!
In all the trip was waay to short, but good to have her over for a little bit. She says she'll come back again so i couldn't have treated her too badly!
