Copenhagen lakes

My place this year, near Valby Station, is great. However, I really miss being near Copenhagen’s lakes. I’ve only seen them a few times this year. I saw them nearly every day during the prior three summers I spent in Copenhagen.

Today’s photo comes from a “trip” I took to central Copenhagen last week to eat ramen at Slurp Ramen Joint.

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.

Kanelsnegles make me happy

Everyone in the USA knows what a danish is, but until you go to Denmark you’ll never really have one. In Denmark a danish (and there are about eight different ones) melt in your mouth; they aren’t bread covered in sugar and icing. I feel a little sick after eating a danish in the USA, but in Denmark I feel good after. Anyway, a trip to Denmark is worth it for this reason alone.

Krøyers Plads

Building between Krøyers Plads and Noma

I’m not sure if this building is technically part of Krøyers Plads or not, but in any event this is a really cool neighborhood–and not just because you can jump in the water on a hot day. Much of this area of Copenhagen (Christianshavn actually) has been built in the past few years, including the bridge from Nyhavn.
