Yesterday as Clyde and I were coming home on the train we saw a sight that made us (and everyone else on the train) smile. It was a class of pre-school children coming home from a field trip. They were holding hands, two by two down the aisles. Even if they couldn't negotiate very well while holding hands, they did not let go. They were happy and chattered all the way through the train. Children until 12 ride free on the public transportation here. There are no school buses so it makes it convenient for all. I do marvel at how young the parents let their children ride the buses and trains alone but the children are confident and know what they are doing. Clyde and I usually sit in the silent car in the back of the train but decided to move closer to the front, since that was closer to the mall we stopped off in last night. I am glad we did or we would have missed that sweet sight of the children.
We went to the temple this morning. I made 2 men cry. One man when he helped me finish up and another man when I explained that we had just finished the cemetery records for Copenhagen. It was quite interesting. The second brother has family in Copenhagen and he hates going to the city building to search. He is going to look into indexing for the city of Copenhagen.
Just barely made our connections today but we did it. We scoped out where we will be attending Stake Conference in a few weeks. Our stake center is being renovated from top to bottom, so we will be using a high school (they are called Gymnasiums in Denmark. Pronounced Gim-nah-zium with a g like in good.)
It has been a wonderful day. I will post the pictures of the 'popcorn' on the trees all over Copenhagen. It is gorgeous. Love it here.
