Trip to Copenhagen!

Trip to Copenhagen!
Thanks to my friends (and you know who you are... ) I was able to visit my sweetie Lise in København, Danmark again this year. This year's trip was more than just a holiday because we were laying the ground work for me to be able to move over there permanently. In addition to the lengthiest employment interview I've ever had and dealing with the "Udlændingestyrelsen" (Danish Immigration) I somehow managed to find the time to get a few decent (I think) photos of people and places in Danmark that I have come to love. Some of the photos are from postcards I bought to share - and rather than actually mail them, I thought I'd put them here... Throughout this little web dagbog or journal you'll find links to outside web pages that have additional information about specific subjects that will open in a separate browser window.

It occurred to me that some explanation of these photos may be in order as the little captions are not completely self explanatory... The first top row of photos were scanned from post cards I bought, since they are better photos that I could take.

The photos show some typical touristic scenes inbenhavn (Copenhagen) The Nyhavn district in København is an old sailor's area where Hans Christian Andersen once lived. It's probably the single most photographed neighborhood in the city and walking around in the area is great fun. Some of the finest old shops in town are located on the side streets in the district. The cafes and restaurants are wonderful, tourist oriented and generally expensive. In 20 years of visiting København I had never gone into any of the places there until this winter when Lise & her friend Anne invited me for coffee on a very chilly day.
