Of course we closed out the day by watching the movie "Hans Christian Andersen" with Danny Kaye and loved it except that they pronounce Copenhagen wrong through the whole thing.

Odense and Hans Christian Andersen
Hans Christian Andersen is Denmark's national hero. We drove to Odense, over the 12 miles bridge that connects Sjaelland and Fyn, to see his home and museum. They have preserved the area around the house he was born in and it is like walking back 200 years.
The museum is excellent and they have a whole walking tour of places in his childhood.
The house he was raised in.
The church he was confirmed in
The school he attended,
Even the pedestrian lights are centered around him....
Of course we closed out the day by watching the movie "Hans Christian Andersen" with Danny Kaye and loved it except that they pronounce Copenhagen wrong through the whole thing.
