Pic of the Week

Also from trip to Copenhagen. Was out walking one evening and found this boy using one of the many statues/works of art in the city as his personal jungle gym. This giant anchor is at the top of Nyhavn street district. This is the 'tourist centre' of the city. Beautiful but expensive. Anyone would do very well walking 5 minutes into the centre of town and discovering some of the quaint local hangouts.




This was most amusing. During our stay in the city we discovered many of these glass boxes dotted around the city. Each one had a different colour and theme. I am not 100% sure but I think they has something to do with exhibiting various solutions that people had come up with regarding improving daily living.


Copenhagen truly is a beautiful city. Then again we were there in October with surprisingly good weather. I would love to go back in winter and see the snow and lights and giant outdoor icerink that is created around one of the circular grass relaxation spaces.

Do people living in glass houses
throw stones?
or
mess with Benny Ladin? LOL!

We have a couple of those glass
buildings here, offices etc, but
I have this niggling doubt.

I,ve never been to the beautiful
Copenhagen, and it doesn,t sur-
prise me that it,s expensive,
The whole of Europe is chomping
chunks out of us, Haaa haa ha!
