The body of water is the Great Belt between the Danish islands of Zealand and Funen.

  1. Your picture reminded me of when I was living in Holland but I can see this was taken not TOO far off.
    Nice.

  2. Very nice use of language. The sounds really tumble together well.

  9. Thank you for visiting my blog and for the comment you left there. I have found your blog is beautiful and very interesting. This photo is just wonderful!It will take me a time to see everything that is interesting for me to see. As for my photo that you saw, I am not sure that I understand what you said about “the kerb”. It isn’t clear to me what regular practice you meant. As for the taxi, it is permitted to use tram line and if a tram comes it will simply wait behind until the traffic light is opened.
