This post has been a long time in coming...not only because we were here for the first time at the end of December, but also because we have already been back a second time. So, I figured it was about time to put up the pictures from our afternoon trip to Ribe.
 |
| It was a cold and windy day-which is probably a regular occurrence on the west coast of DK |
 |
| Ribe Domkirke..built, burned down, collapsed, rebuilt, remodeled for the past thousand years |
 |
| Climbing to the top of the tower to see the 'stunning views' promised by our guidebook |
 |
| And I'd have to say that we were not disappointed. |
 |
| You always see Christmas decorations on top of buildings from afar...and below. But on this particular day, I saw one at eye level. I was obviously so impressed that I had to take a picture. |
 |
| Excavation still happens in the town. |
 |
| If you can believe it, this town was once a seaport. |
 |
| I mentioned it was windy right? |
We went to the Viking Museum in town and had lunch at an old inn to wrap up our day in Ribe.
On our second trip to Ribe, the view was a bit different--and my mom was along for the adventure!

| Ribe in the snow |

| My mom and I |
Have you been on the nightwatchman tour around Ribe? If not you should check it out sometime!
