Overcoming Fear in Tivoli: A Memorable Day
I Tivoli, midt i København, var der to venner, Lars og Anders, som besluttede sig for at tage deres veninde, Kirsten, med på en rutsjebanetur.
In Tivoli, in the middle of Copenhagen, there were two friends, Lars and Anders, who decided to take their friend, Kirsten, on a roller coaster ride.
De var alle spændte og klar til en sjov dag i parken.
They were all excited and ready for a fun day at the park.
Lars og Anders var ikke bange for højder, så de forventede at have det sjovt.
Lars and Anders were not afraid of heights, so they expected to have fun.
Men der var én ting, de ikke vidste om Kirsten.
But there was one thing they didn't know about Kirsten.
Hun var bange for højder - rigtig, rigtig bange.
She was afraid of heights - really, really afraid.
De vidste ikke, at Kirsten var lige så bange, som et egern i en grumpy krokodilles mund!
They didn't know that Kirsten was as scared as a squirrel in a grumpy crocodile's mouth!
Da de kom frem til den høje, skræmmende rutsjebane, stod Kirsten og kiggede med et nervøst smil.
When they reached the tall, scary slide, Kirsten stood looking with a nervous smile.
Lars og Anders troede, at hun var spændt på turen og glædede sig til at prøve noget nyt.
Lars and Anders thought she was excited about the trip and was looking forward to trying something new.
Så de hoppede op på rutsjebanen og plads til Kirsten mellem sig.
So they jumped onto the slide and placed Kirsten between them.
Men da rutsjebanen begyndte at køre op ad det stejle stykke, begyndte Kirsten pludselig at skrige - højt og meget højt!
But when the slide started going up the steep part, Kirsten suddenly started screaming - loud and very loud!
Hele vejen op, ned og rundt hele rutsjebanen råbte hun af skræk.
All the way up, down and around the entire slide she cried out in terror.
Lars og Anders prøvede at holde ansigterne oprejst og grine, men de var faktisk lidt bange for at de ville falde af rutsjebanen.
Lars and Anders tried to keep their faces straight and laugh, but they were actually a little afraid that they would fall off the slide.
Da rutsjebanen endelig stoppede, begyndte Kirsten at græde.
When the slide finally stopped, Kirsten started to cry.
Hun var meget lettet over, at turen var forbi, men også flov over at have skreget så meget.
She was very relieved that the trip was over, but also embarrassed to have screamed so much.
Lars og Anders trøstede hende og forsikrede hende om, at det var okay at være bange.
Lars and Anders comforted her and assured her that it was okay to be scared.
De ville ikke tvinge hende til at prøve noget, hun var skræmt af.
They didn't want to force her to try something she was scared of.
Efter rutsjebaneturen gik de til en mindre vild forlystelse, som både Lars og Anders kunne nyde uden at blive bange.
After the roller coaster ride, they went to a less wild ride that both Lars and Anders could enjoy without being scared.
Kirsten var lettet over ikke at skulle gennemgå endnu en skræmmende tur.
Kirsten was relieved not to have to go through another scary ride.
De grinede og legede hele eftermiddagen og havde det virkelig sjovt til sidst.
They laughed and played all afternoon and had a really good time at the end.
Så selvom Kirsten var bange for højder og skreg hele vejen igennem rutsjebaneturen, endte dagen alligevel lykkeligt.
So even though Kirsten was afraid of heights and screamed all the way through the roller coaster ride, the day still ended happily.
Lars og Anders lærte at respektere hendes frygt og Kirsten lærte, at hun kunne have det sjovt i parken uden at prøve de vildeste forlystelser.
Lars and Anders learned to respect her fears and Kirsten learned that she could have fun in the park without trying the wildest rides.
Og de tre venner havde en fantastisk, mindeværdig dag i Tivoli.
And the three friends had a fantastic, memorable day in Tivoli.
