Picnic in the open air

Hvis I vil spise en lækker frokost i det fri, er hyggelige Munke Mose en oplagt mulighed til dette. I kan have egen picnickurv med eller købe takeaway hos af de mange caféer i Odense. Det kan godt være lidt koldt i vinterferien, så det er en god ide at have et tæppe med, som I kan lægge ud på græsset. I Aafartens udendørscafé er det muligt at købe en kop kaffe eller en is.
