No tour in Arhus

June 21 - Arhus

I canceled the tour for today because I thought (correctly) that we would be tired from the long tour yesterday.

which was good as the ones the next day in Oslo were a good distance away from where we docked and I didn't get to shop there.

I was looking for a sweater for my husband like I had seen in Tallin but didn't have enough money with me to buy, but I didn't find anything here.

Our travel agent Cal gave us a Pinnacle Grill dinner as a gift (thank you Cal) and this was the day we had made reservations for that - I figured it was formal night anyway and we wouldn't have to rush to get ready as we were not going on a tour.

They said the options were 1730 or 2030, so we picked 1730.

The guy came around with his plate of choice meat and explained it to us, but neither of us wanted that much meat. They also gave us a dish of olive oil and also a

Pot of butter and cover

for the bread. First they brought the

Bread

and then a small cup of

Soup

When we ordeed they told us that if we wanted a souffle for dessert we should order it now because it took a half an hour to do. So I ordered the chocolate souffle. B actually ate a full meal. She had

Dungeness crab cake

as the appetizer, and I had the lobster bisque which came with a large spoon of lobster meat beside the soup dish.

Then she had the

with a side of mashed potatoes. I had the lobster mac and cheese with a side of

Creamed spinach with the cheese cracker

I really love the cheese cracker. Then they brought us a little

Dish of chocolates- dark chocolate balls, white chocolate hearts and nuggat balls

When it came time for dessert there was a long wait for it. B ordered the cherries jubilee which was made with Ben and Jerry cherry ice cream. They brought it to the table and poured liquer on it and lighted it for her.
