We spent a busy week at the end of May visiting family in Guernsey and Denmark. and although our rigorous time schedule allowed for little free-time, we did manage to squeeze in a lovely boat trip to Herm (half an hours sail from Guernsey), a trip to Malmo in Sweden for a bit of shopping, and the obligatory Tivoli visit, trying out the latest rides, which included a celebration of the fairytales of Hans Christian Anderson and a stomach turning, balance altering rollercoaster.
On Sunday, after spending Saturday antiques shopping with Claire and Henrik, we were treated to the cast and crew pre-premiere screening of Batman Begins in London, which included Christopher Nolan, the Director. Claire and Henrik were both involved in the creation of the bat-suit, arguably one of the most important features in the film. And it was magnificent. Chris and I were very impressed, Chris gleaming with sibling pride. And the film itself far exceeded expectations. Nothing like the previous films, it was dark, realistic and very well acted by an impressive cast, which included Liam Neeson, Christian Bale, Morgan Freeman and Michael Cane. The effects were excellent, the dialogue witty, and the story-line believable. Well worth going to see...
