And even though we haven't seen each other for a long time, things always go back to where they were.
I have brought home a pack of Golden Katrina every time and woke up before anyone else to make coffee for everyone.
Our helicopter had flown 250 kilometres from Denmark's west coast when it circled a solitary oil rig rising up from the choppy waters of the North Sea.
where CO2 emissions captured from industry will be buried 1,800 metres below the seabed.
Instead of pulling the oil and gas up the ground, we're going to inject the CO2 into the ground instead.
And after decades of exploration, the region's geology is also well understood.
What we have here is now four pieces of coal.
Niels Skosbo, a senior researcher at the Geological Survey of Greenland and Denmark, showed me a grainy green slab drilled from the seafloor.
If we want to go net zero and even net negative, we will need these technologies.
Helena Hegel is head of climate and environmental policy at Greenpeace Denmark.
But if our generation use the seabed for storing carbon now that we shouldn't have emitted in the first place, then the generations coming after us won't be able to use the seabed to store their emissions.
Seeing a future building up here to the green transitions is just amazing.
It's on a scale that's hard to take in. The size of 600 football pitches, this colossal construction site, is where a record-breaking tunnel is being built, linking Denmark to Germany. Inside three enormous halls, tunnel segments, each more than 200 meters long, are molded from steel and concrete. Und mich zu zeigen ist Henrik Vintensen, der CEO von Tunnel-Operator Femmeln.
Running for 18 kilometers along the Baltic seabed, the Femmenbelt will be the world's longest prefabricated road and rail tunnel. It will slash the rail route between Copenhagen and Hamburg from four and a half to just two and a half hours and replace the 45-minute ferry journey by a drive of less than 10 minutes.
Financed mostly by Denmark, which plans to recoup the costs with tolls, this $7.5 billion megaproject has been in the pipeline for two decades. It's been delayed by lawsuits, rising costs and opposition from environmentalists, who say it will harm the area's biodiversity. Those managing the project say any impact is temporary.
But it's hoped investment will boost the local area, and building is now well underway. Senior Construction Manager Anas Gertz-Beller leads the way inside the entrance.
Behind these huge steel doors is seawater and the next section of tunnel will have to be placed here exactly. Jeder Segment, der 73.000 Tonnen wiegt, wird ausgelöst, dann genauer in den Platz gelegt. In allem werden 90 Segmente zusammengelegt, Stück für Stück, wie Lego-Maschinen. Das ist ein Fehl der Ingenieure.
The bedrock is too soft to drill, but a tunnel was deemed more secure than a bridge, says Per Galtemann, a professor in concrete and structures at the Technical University of Denmark.
Adrien Murray in Denmark.
Well, there's been a drastic fall in the volume of mail that we send. Since 2000, that's slumped by 90% and that's really an enormous fall. And just last year, letter deliveries also dropped off by 30%. As a result, PostNord, they've faced years of financial challenges. They've been trying to cost-cut and modernize. And the big driver behind that really, of course, is digitalization.
