Catching Up: The Trapholt Museum

Lunch at the Trapholt

Back on April 1st, we visited the Trapholt Museum in Kolding, Denmark. (No fooling!) Kolding is about an hour and ten minutes south of Aarhus and so we decided to make the trek down to see what the museum had to offer. The Trapholt is best known for its furniture collections but also features some modern art and architecture exhibits.

The picture above shows Ken and the kids in the Trapholt's cafe waiting for their very expensive lunch to arrive. Our lunch cost more than 50 dollars for the four of us, which is (unfortunately) a fairly typical price here in Denmark for the four of us to eat out. (Hint: we don't eat out very often!)

You can view the rest of the photos from our visit to the Trapholt at Flickr in our Trapholt photo set. As you will see, they had some very unusual couches and some amazing chairs on display.

Believe it or not, the kids did pretty well trekking through a furniture museum, only complaining towards the end of our stay. The best line of the day was when Max turned to me and said: “Papa, I thought you said this museum had INTERESTING stuff!!”

Enjoy,

Ken
