DID YOU KNOW? |

In Denmark, married couples enjoy three big milestones to celebrate: in addition to the golden wedding at 50 years and the silver wedding at 25 years, they also have a big party for their bronze wedding at 12.5 years! A nice opportunity for a summer fest for those who got married in the cold winter months. |

MONTH OF MARCH |
 |
March is the very special month when the clocks go back and we get to enjoy an extra hour of daytime (and playtime), everyday! This also means spring is around the corner and all those beautiful flowers reappear in our parks and gardens. We can look forward to changing to springtime fashion and enjoying a sunny afternoon in a café or an outdoor restaurant. There is always light at the end of the tunnel! Don't forget to change your watches on Sunday 29 March. |

EASTER IS COMING! |
oldest "gækkebrev" from 1916 |
There is a unique Danish Easter tradition which is the custom of sending teaser letters (gækkebreve) which are written like little poems or rhymes. A few weeks before Easter, children cut out elaborate letters, on which they write their teaser verses. The letters that are sent to family members and good friends are usually anonymous, but signed with a number of dots corresponding to the number of letters in the sender's name, so that the recipient has a chance of guessing who sent it. If they guess correctly, then the reward is an egg at Easter. The gækkebreve can be decorated with a snowdrop, which is regarded as the first flower of the year. You will also notice that many homes and shops are decorated for Easter in green and yellow, especially with new-leaved branches and daffodils. And of course, eggs are coloured and often added as decoration. HAPPY EASTER! |
