NP, what are you appologizing to me for? Probably should be the other way around, with me appologizing to you? You are always nice & polite to all.

kinda flat, though.. Well, that doesn't really bother me, but it seems to be the impression people always leave with - "it's very flat".
I wish we had fewer fields and more untouched nature, though

Interesting, what makes you think Danes are very religious?
Btw, the viking period was more like 1200-800 years ago, if I recall correctly :)

I just did a guess at the period of the Vikings. And, I have read that many Danes are religious.
This is my opinion and my image of Denmark.

Hm... actually by far most people are atheists. Devout religious people will have a hard time here, at least in the area I live in

Hm.. that's odd, it's too cold for lime trees to grow here. Why does it make you think of that?
Btw, it's DinesEn ;)

Thanks for the correction, Green.
Do you know that author i'm referring to? I looked for the story but couldn't find it. It was about a young lonely young aristocrat whose function was to produce an heir for an older man, and a peasant woman who worked herself to death harvesting wheat trying to pay the penalty fine for an errant young son. The lime trees surrounded the castle of the aristocrats and may have symbolized the cultivated, manicured and unconscious feminine of that time. So I'm surprised that there wouldn't be SOME lime trees in Denmark.

Hm.. no, I'm afraid I'm not familiar with her, I just googled the name. I suppose lime trees can grow here if planted and cultivated, but they won't spread naturally
