Saturday Night Dinner
With a smaller camp we can arrange the tables so we all can sit together for the Saturday Evening Dinner. Kasper, Mikkel, Iben and Marie had cooked a really great dinner og filet, cream potatoes and broccoli salad and Dorthe har made dessert with Italian hazelnut cake, pickled plums and vanilla ice cream. We enjoyed the meal and had a quiet evening. The sun is nearly touching the horizon just after midnight now so candles of the table are needed.
