Costumes through the Ages

After the cafe, we had a look round the museum of costume, housed in the old Brede Clothing Works. It was divided into two parts - fashions for the rich and regional peasant costumes.
We had the place almost to ourselves. It was well documented, in English - I like those words like "taffeta" and "tulle", and "broderie anglais" that describe costumes. We could hear the river running underneath the workshop where it would have turned the great mill wheels.
Later on, we caught the single-carriage train at the tiny station on the banks of the lake with the little jetty, swans, ducks and cootes. The track ran back down the valley to Lyngby. Places further north, like Denmark have longer dawns and dusks and though it's cold, the sun seems to last for ages.
