So, the worst is over but I’m not quite there yet. After a week spent chained to the house and three days chasing tickets and passport on the phone, email and Internet, I am finally almost in Denmark.
My passport should arrive in Leeds on Saturday between 6am and 8am. I have booked a flight from Manchester to Copenhagen for 4.10pm and a train from Copenhagen at 8.40pm which will get me into Aarhus, Jutland, just after midnight. From there it will be a short hour-and-a-half journey to Sofie and our annual Danish Christmas ritual.
I’ll breathe a very big sigh of relief once I’m in Aarhus but I won’t be happy until I get there. In the meantime my parents just took me for a lovely walk to get a breath of fresh air and to stretch my legs (pics to follow). My eyes have been twitching so much lately that I resemble a very convincing impression of Inspector Dreyfus.
UPDATE: (Dec. 23, early AM) Passport has arrived. I leave for the train station in a few hours.
