1. I can take the train that I take every morning to class to Hamburg or Lubeck, Germany for $50
2. My boots are not waterproof
3. There is approximately 3 feet of snow on the ground in Copenhagen at the moment - and still too few plow trucks
4. When you order a pizza at Vesuvio de Copenhagen, it is NOT a personal pizza, it is a full blown big ole' pizza, but still delicious!
5. If you wander in 1 direction long enough, you will somehow end up back where you started (which suggests that Copenhagen is in a circle, which is strange...)
6. eating 3/4 of a whole pizza is a very bad idea...
7. Denmark takes Hot Chocolate VERY seriously, and if you tell a restaurant owner that his is the best he will damn near kiss you
8. Italians in Denmark are exactly the same as Italians in Chicago
Food Log:
Breakfast: homemade rolls with butter and jam (NOT musseli and yogurt, just for you mom)
Lunch: Lots of gourmet pizza with pesto, sundried tomatoes, and mushrooms, hot chocolate
Dinner: soup with mushy dough balls and meatballs
P.S. I've added more photos to photobucket so you can click on "view all" I put on earlier to see them!
ReplyDeletethose HCA illustrations and paper cuttings are sooooo cool!! I hope you remembered to grab a post card or print for your art-loving sister!
ReplyDeleteI also love how there is a silhouette of him for the crosswalk light!
and in that relief with the t-shaped crosses- did that chapel have franciscan associations? or was the patron saint st. anthony? they both used the tau cross (that's what its called in the biz) as emblems.
I don't know, the tour guide said that the T-shaped cross was just how they made crosses in those days. I think the chapel was built in the 1400s
ReplyDeletethe pizza does sound delicious!!!
ReplyDeletei told you to buy wellies ASAP when you got there!
sidewalk plows already exist, i recommend sughesting them to the queen when you have tea with her. :]
