About the pictures









THIS IS A CONTINUATION OF MY POST EARLIER. I was in Sønderborg, Denmark last weekend.
About the pictures---(click the images to see the larger view)
-Optimist dinghy regatta. It was really amazing to see how this sport build the children's confidence and discipline.
- A long walk along the shores from the center to the harbour was truly a wonderful experience. I started early morning and there were few people.... I saw some coming out on their boats and later on, people keep coming and walking with friends, families and dogs......There were also some buses with tourists of different nationalities. There were children playing with their skateboards and yet, it is not allowed to take pictures of children, and many times, I feel ackward taking pictures of grownups.....
-Saint Marie church, houses, summer houses in different colors, a picture of myself together with OL 2008 49'er gold medalist in sailing Martin Kirketerp. There was a big reception saturday evening, lots of young and old sailors with their families, with lots of flags in the ceiling. Martin shared about his exposure to sailing and his achievements, goals and advice to the optimists sailors. There were lots of food, and even music at the end of the evening. During the awarding Sunday evening, Martin's younger brother won the first price.
I am not finished with all the pictures. My computer is teasing me until now.
