Olsen Banden
Our entertainment this weekend was watching the first Olsen Banden movie. The Olsen Gang is a made up of three guys who, from the two films we've seen so far, carry out different capers to steal something very valuable and run off to Mallorca to enjoy their newfound wealth. There were 14 films in all, all of which follow the same pattern. We had to watch the CD with subtitles for hearing-impaired Danes, since there were no English subtitles. There is a lot of physical humor, so we there wasn't much lost there. It's also a chance to see scenes of Denmark from the past including old cars and different sites in Copenhagen and other towns.Otherwise, we're both recovering from colds (again). We had a big social weekend planned with a visit Friday with a couple for whom we were planning to cat-sit, a dinner this evening with another couple, and lastly Monday dinner with our former Danish instructor. We've rescheduled things and hopefully we can be healthy for the next go-round.

Is that the Olsen Gang in the pic to the right? (It sounds like fun story)
Hearing impaired Danes you are, I guess, in a manner of speaking! I assume the subtitles were in Danish then.
In the picture, Egon (the mastermind) is on the bottom, Kjeld is in the middle, and Benny is on top. There were no English subtitles on the dvd, but the Danish subtitles were enough to get the gist.
