Heading back to the midnight sun

Hallgrímskirkja in Reykjavík (Iceland) covered in sun at midnight on the summer solstice

Tomorrow morning I’m heading north again. Tomorrow night I’ll spend the night in a ship hotel in Stockholm, and Friday I’ll head even farther north. I’ll have to bring the sleeping eye mask to get a bit of darkness.

I won’t make it quite as high north as I was in Iceland, but I don’t think it will get completely dark in Gävle.

Ascalon @ 2016 Metal Brew

Ascalon @ Metal Brew

I’m not going to make this year’s Metal Brew. Instead, I will be in Sweden for Gefle Metal Festival 2017. But if you happen to be in England this weekend, Metal Brew is tons of fun. This year’s headliner is Grim Reaper.

Grundtvigs Kirke

I didn’t have class today so I went for a bike ride. First stop was Grundtvig’s Church. The sky was overcast when I left my place in Valby, but by the time I arrive blue sky was beginning to appear. This made my exterior photos much better.

I would love to hear some music in this place. Unfortunately, the night-time concerts seem to be on break until August, and the day-time music is on Wednesday when I’m teaching.

Should you ever be biking to this church, I recommend approaching from the west, through the cemetery. It’s much more spectacular than from the south, which is how I arrived.
