Manor in Denmark

Hello, dear readers. Friday already! My mother is coming on Sunday to stay with us for a month and I have quite a number of things to do yet before she arrives. So, before I get moving here is today's tour for you.<br />Anette and Heine Robert Dahl used to live in apartments in Copenhagen. In the spring of 2009 they moved to Gelskov. Here they live in this Manor on Funen where they also hold exhibitions, display antiques and flea market finds for sale, and they even run a bed & breakfast.<br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55506.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55504.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55507.jpg" /><br />Owners Anette and Heine<br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55508.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55515.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55512.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55519.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55516.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55511.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55517.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55518.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55513.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55510.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55509.jpg" /><br /><br /><img alt="" id="__image" src="http://www.fri.dk/sites/default/files/specials/img_800x600/55514.jpg" /><br /><br />Remember I love reading your comments!
