Wind And Waves In Henne

The wandering white ocean spray is sent flying along the wind, washing the sand and sunbathers with a cool swath of salt that marinates the entire maritime experience like a fish waiting to fry. Hair and eyes all crusted over, skin sunbaked into a dark golden crisp, as if the very sea itself wants to reach out and eat up every last one. Henne is an area in the Northern European country of Denmark. From the Viking age towards the end of the 13th century, the kingdom of Denmark consisted of Jutland, north from the Eider River, the islands of Zealand, Funen, and Bornholm, along with Skåne, Halland and Blekinge, which is a part of southern Sweden today. Following the end of the 11th century, Denmark underwent a transition from a patchwork of regional chiefs with a weak and semi-elected royal institution, into a realm which more reflected European feudalism, with a powerful king ruling through an influential nobility. The period is marked by internal strife and the generally weak geopolitical position of the realm, which for long stretches fell under German influence. The period also featured the first of large stone buildings (mostly churches), a deep penetration by the Christian religion, the appearance of monastic orders in Denmark and the first written historical works such as the Gesta Danorum ("Deeds of the Danes").
