Puzzle Description:

Home... This is Denmark where I live. The white dots are cities. Starting from the top Aalborg, Viborg, Silkeborg, Herning Århus, Horsens (this dot looks like a part of the white water right below Århus), Vejle, Kolding, Esbjerg, Haderslev. All in Jylland the one on the left. Fyn in the middel has from the left Middelfart, Assens, Odense (where I live), Svendborg, Nyborg (where I work). Sjælland on the right has from the right Slagelse, Næstved, Roskilde and the big white square on the far right is København/Copenhagen our capital. The black box in the upper right corner has Bornholm in it, the island is actually lokaded farther out to the right and south of the puzzle but in all maps its always placed in a box like here.

Cool I didn't realize Denmark had so many islands. I guess I've never looked at it close up on a map. :)

I originally started making this puzzle fore this weeks challenge but it got a little to big for that. But that is why I put in the cities/towns as places to visit.

btw the black is germany. It didn't feel right leaving it out so I maid it another color to show it was not part of Denmark

great puzzle sad that you can't fit it in a 40X 40 size :-(

In an interesting fit of symmetry, I just finished reading "The Fractalist: Memoir of a Scientific Maverick" by Benoit Mandelbrot. One of his many areas of study was the roughness and fractal nature of coastlines. And Denmark has quite a bit of coastline!

I'm from the USA, so I didn't know what this was until I saw the explanation. Good job! All that cartography must have taken a while.
