Catalog

I'm failing at blogging as things happen. So I'm going to start a catalog of the things, thoughts, things said each day as I remember them; then I will (hopefully) return to expand on them. This post will be constantly evolving.

Lunch at the glass market

Canal tour, where we baked in the sun, still fun seeing the city from a different angle, going under low bridges, and listening to the very loud Asian man behind us

Studio, nutella crepes for dinner from the French Festival in Gameltorv
When biking home, got my shoelace caught in my peddle, I had to stop because I couldn't peddle forward (there was no more lace to wrap) but I couldn't pull my foot off the handle. Had quite a time unwrapping that, luckily it was late enough that very few Danes saw me.

Ate at Albatross on the beach

Saw the Turning Torso by Calatrava

Walked through the old town and snacked at a bath house in the ocean

Met an English woman on the train when she heard my accent and asked what part of the states I was from, had a good half hour conversation with her, was very friendly, thought my accent was lovely

Pizza for dinner and studio

Roomie bike ride with Lindsey May up to the Little Mermaid. Ate in the shade, got as close to the mermaid as we could stand (there were swarms of tourists) and walked through the Fortress.
