Everything is new, so she looks with curiosity and thoughtfulness also on ordinary things in her immediate surroundings. Mostly she moves around in the house, plays with her toys, dances, reprehends the cats, looks out through the windows. Now and then her circles widens, as when her father brings her to a farm nearby, or to his job. One day her parents take her with a ferry to Copenhagen, where they visit the Zoo.
