Land of Fairy Tales - Denmark V

We decided to do some trekking after the hearty breakfast on the date of departure from Aeroe Island. Usually, I would be quite careful about the time management but we didn't really walk around our B&B and it was like not really "staying in countryside". Needed to move around to "feel" the local atmosphere.  So, I "okayed" to the trekking and we did our packing before proceeding out. 

Mogen told us to be careful on the trek as there would be rocks - I still wondered why at that moment.  We started along a sandy trek. There were nice small houses along the trek and I was looking for any wild dogs (I heard some barks in the distance). My wife, however, was really enjoying the fresh air and country side trek.   Nice blue skyline, rows of houses and greenery - perfect for a wide angle shot and I had to set up a few tripod points to capture the countryside feel.  

There were trees that looked like Sakura trees, and we were quite fascinated about them. So, we tried to frame them in our photos with the backdrop of all the nice distant houses and greenery.  Even when we were "framing" the photos, I still on a constant lookout for any dogs.  We didn't see any wild dogs though but we saw a "bunch" of chicken.  My wife believed that the chicken were waiting for their owners to feed them - they were quite noisy when we passed by. Maybe they thought we were the owners?  

Besides the amazing trees and houses, there were also something very special and unique to us especially for my wife.  She was very amazed at "barter trade" - yes - there were carts or wooden "shelf" installed outsides some houses and the owners simply just put their homemade items for sale.  If you are interested to buy an item, you can just take and place your money on the "shelf" or cart. This type of trading shows how honest and simple the lives of these villagers on the island. Very interesting, and this was something of an experience - a local living experience that we liked.  Something that was similar here was the sharing of books in some neighbourhood.  

After some walking, we finally reached the beach and the weather was warm due to our exercise. For a moment, I still had the notion that the beach would be sandy.  In fact, it was rocky, and I suddenly realised this was the "dangerous" part of the trek that Mogen warned us.  There were some locals standing in the waters fishing. It was really cold and we wondered if they were going to catch any fish. We started to walk on the rocky rocks, and we weren't sure if the path would lead us back to our B&B.  However, I did recall seeing the beach (or to be exact the sea) when we were at B&B.

We were quite happy when we saw a glimpse of our B&B - we were a bit worried that we might have taken a wrong route.  It was about 10 am, and we supposed to leave at 1030am to catch a bus and the ferry.  It was a nice trek and a trek with my wife, my tripod and cameras.
