We’re on our way to Wembly!

No not quite… but Parken is the Danish equivalent of Wembly and that’s where the WHOLE of Mia’s school is going next Thursday after winning the semi-final of the girls national football championship. The picture (from Denmark’s leading red top, number 15 in the series) shows Mia totally enraptured by the skill displayed by her team! We are delighted that the school is willing and able to drop everything for a day in this spontaneous fashion. The only down side is that Mia has to be at school by 7.30 am in order to get the bus to get the ferry to be at Parken in time for the 13:00 kick-off. Of course the boys get top billing with a 17:00 kick-off. The organisers, Ekstra Bladet and The Voice, have also persuaded some top ranked Danish popstars to enliven the scene between matches.
