visitors in town!
as sam blogs on and on about our dear jac's major faux pas in copenhagen and jac shouting in the toilet, i'd just be the nicer host and say that it was great having ange, mel and jac altogether in copenhagen. the appt was crowded because everyone was sleeping all over the place on the first night, mel on the sofa, jac on the floor, ange on the double bed bunk etc etc but it was absolutely fun getting to know ange and mel and musing/complaining/ranting that being overseas sucks because we cant run out at 1am in the morning to eat a decent prata. which is what everyone complains about anyway. our one uniting factor.
anyhow, sam and i brought them around town, re-using our 'copenhagen in 2 days' itinerary which has been used many times over with various visitors in this and the last semester (read: little mermaid, kastellet, stroget, christiania), making them try smorrebrod, risket hotdog (ie hotdog smothered with scallions and fresh onions), and cake from lagkagehuset, which of course is the most bestest cakehouse this side of scandinavia. (and where somebody's rumballs came from)
ange and mel left for shuz's place in stockholm last night, while jac is still here to commit even more geographical errors. see sam's blog for laughs. anyway, she's definitely seeing a little more of copenhagen because we brought her to see a little of rosenborg castle, botantic gardens and walked into the beautiful frederiksberg gardens which amazed her because i think bristol doesnt have as many ducks.
jac: oh my god! i've never seen so many ducks!
but the weather has been more than excellent since the girls arrived. its machiam like spring now, only im praying that the danish weather isnt teasing us. because the last time we had a sunny week, it was followed by a week of snow and hail. but loads of people were out today, jogging, pushing babies in prams, walking dogs in the greening gardens. its very beautiful how the flowers are slowly but surely blooming. and it also brings back memories of the summer of last semester when i first stepped foot in copenhagen. come to think of it, it was my first weekend when i went to frederiksberg gardens with daniel (my mentor), sam, emily and miriam (who are both now back in australia). and seeing how the scenery in town has changed from green in summer to brown in fall to hairless in winter to the now pale green of fresh leaves, tells me that ive been here for almost three-quarters of my exchange and time here is almost over. soon its going to be not 'hullo copenhagen' but 'hej hej kobenhavn'.
tres hiaz!
fwah. super dramatic.
but its true no more time liao! ok, jac's bugging me to read my blog. but ive to add this. just because.
jac (to sam): eh! you did the turkish bath ah?
sam: (explains that yes, he did the bath)
jac: (laughs) haha. its so funny that i can speak to the blogger himself while reading this blog.
me: (rolls eyes)
