Frozen Sea

Picture 1: My signature Marble Cake

We woke up and decided to complete some indoor tasks as it was snowing outside. It was rather windy and felt as if the wind speed had increased with the waves crashing against the rocks. The plan this morning was to bake a cake and make a vegetarian Shepards Pie to take round for dinner with Lisa and Simon. We completed the food prep which took a while as we got slightly interrupted with oiling the newly sanded kitchen work surfaces.

Once both tasks were completed, we had some lunch and some banana bread that we baked yesterday evening.

Whilst eating lunch, the sun started to come out so both of us were eager to go for a short walk as it was windy and chilly out. We wrapped up warm and headed towards Jennes Sø. After a slight detour we reached our destination. The water was still very frozen with lots of ice around and looked rather beautiful in the low winter sunshine. We continued our walk towards the lighthouse and on our way, Thomas spotted a Sparrowhawk (Spurvehøg) and a possible Goshawk (Duehøg) so some good finds as quiet overall.

On our way back to the lighthouse we spotted that the rocks were covered in ice, after investigating we discovered that this was frozen sea foam and water. It was impressive and showed how cold it really was. We were on a tight schedule so headed back to warm up and get ready for our evening plans with Lisa and Simon.

This evening, we had some tasty food which was enjoyed all round and watched the Handball semi-finals. Denmark and Germany ended up winning so who knows what will happen on Sunday!
