Columbia River Gorge – Oregon-Washington border

I took today’s photo from the Crown Point Vista House in Oregon. Across the river is Washington. I believe the island in the middle of the river is Reed Island State Park. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.

Carlsberg Brewery

One of the great things about Copenhagen is you can ride a bike anywhere. There are no hills, and the streets have great bike lanes. The downside is when you get caught in a rain storm. I took today’s photo at the Carlsberg Brewery (in Frederiksberg) while waiting for the rain to let up. It didn’t, and I eventually had to head out through the storm. I got drenched, but it was still a good day.

Next time you are in the mood for Vegan Cock-N-Balls or Triple Chocolate Penetration, this is the place to go to have your desires met. The menu prior to 2010 looked like this.

Moesgaard Museum – Stave Church – Århus, Denmark

One day, while sightseeing in Århus, Denmark, I rode the bus down to Højbjerg to check out the stave church. I knew what a stave church was supposed to look like from playing the “Age of Mythology” computer game so I was a bit disappointed to find this one which looked nothing like my expectations.

Stave church interior

None of the original Viking churches have survived in Denmark. This one is a reconstruction done in the 1990s. The bell tower next to the church was completed in 2004.
