Doctor's office: Something involving the doctor fishing out something from my back with a needle. A long and funny (eww-spiring) storyRoskilde Bibliotek: Of all the things I could borrow, it had to be books on London. Raket! Their "English for all" campaign is a riot! Funny signs putting together famous sayings. "If all else fails, read the manual."

Netto: But of course! A girl has to eat.
Amalienborg: The home of Danish monarch. On display at "The Chronological Collections of the Danish Kings" were the rooms as the king had left them and the dresses of female royalty.

Marmorkirken: If that dome looks too much like St. Peter's, it's true-that's the inspiration. The Frederikskirke, aka the Marble Church, looks out of place in Copenhagen.
Kunstindustrimuseet: The Danish Museum of Art and Design has a lot of porcelain and chairs. I wanted to protest when I saw that a bag made of Big 250 and Plus! King Size wrappers were marked as coming from Africa. Noooooooooooo!photo by ines_na_dinamarca
Den Grønne Kælder: Celebration dinner with my groupmates at a vegetarian restaurant near Kongens Nytorv. We had been planning to go for a long time now, but we were politely turned away last time because they had run out of food. My most expensive meal so far in Denmark, but very filling.
Tivoli: With a few hours to spare, I explored the corners of the park that I didn't see last time and rested my feet while waiting for musicians who never came. (No Friday shows.)

Stats
Post offices visited for various errands: three (four if you include this morning)
Friendly Filipinos met at Tivoli: eight, all between the ages of 50 and 90. A group of US-based siblings and their spouses account for seven; a woman married to a Dane and here since '61 is the other.
Ice cream flavors tasted: four - two at Tivoli (nocciola, cafe latte), two at Paradis (fløde karamel, hazelnut) Brown tastebuds, eh?

ReplyDeleteI havent been around Denmark except the airport. And I didnt even joined or actually the entire film class on our school excursion to Denmark since we were busy with lots of stuff. Anyway, hope i have my chance later
ReplyDelete@the philosophical bastard: there are usually links to english versions. somewhere near the header. in many danish sites, there are teensy-weensy icons of the union jack. thanks for dropping by!
ReplyDelete@chase: i think copenhagen airport is pretty representative of the orderliness of denmark. now all you need is the history. do visit next time :)
