Skull!! Today, I rowed Viking ship in Denmark and for the first time! Yes, It was crazy and it was worth to pay for the separate ticket! I mean seriously, where would you go ever to row a VIKING. A REAL VIKING! The captain had so many years of experience of sailing and I learned so much about sailing a boat in general as well as rowing a Viking.

Meanwhile, I was waiting for my Viking time; I was at the Viking museum with children orchestra playing pirates of Caribbean one of my favorite OST from the movie. Also, the museum looked great, and they even had a YOKE's video production of Viking over the sea based on actual sailors' journal. Which were great and suited to the aesthetic of the physical Viking that was presented for the audience to interact with. Where I and Sarah one of my friend from the class took a photo of posturing like a captain of the ship. It pulled my interaction and made it more interesting for the museum and the audience.

YOKE's viking experience

After Viking, I headed up to the church is on the way to the station. It is right next to the information desk of the Roskilde or even before the entrance of the downtown of the Roskilde. This church is where St. Mary buried, as well as the other kings and queens and her families. Mainly known for Margaret I of Denmark's cathedral. From what I saw and observed, St. Mary wasn't highly respected by the other church members or families after shed died. The reason is that of tomb location in the church. Her tomb located underground next to her siblings that aren't highly recognized by the others of the member of the church or families.

P.S I missed Ragna Rocks, which is a museum of pop music where Elvis can found. However, I did not have enough time to visit before they closed. I will love to go back to the Roskilde in the future if I have the time if it is possible later.
