For my last day of being sixteen, I went on a walk with my family at the castle ruin called Kalø by our house. It has a really interesting history; it was founded in 1313 by a Danish King to counter the ongoing rebellions of the Jutlandic nobility and peasantry against the Crown. If you want to know more about the castle, you can read about it here:

It was a little cloudy, but very beautiful. It's about a five minute car drive from our house and is easily within walking or biking distance. We brought some dinner with us and sat on the beach to eat.
We brought along our dog, Ziggi, who ended up wandering off at one point and we had to go find him. There were a lot of cows near the ruins as well just wandering around.

This was the view while we were eating:
Not a bad way to spend my last day being 16, if you ask me.
