Copenhagen Cool.

[learnteach]

Marched around looking at towers today, sweating off the fever I hope.

So, anyway, here I am in Copenhagen, the weather is
OK, my friend Deena's doing great (working on her
business degree at CBS (Copenhagen Business School),
eating open faced sandwichs, and relatively cheap
salmon, posing near the Little Mermaid, checking out
the Black Diamond (National Library, NOT a ski run)
and otherwise hanging out. Drinking lots of tea for
the throat infection. Planning to go to Roskilde to
the Viking Ship Museum tomorrow. Exploring the local
sites and sights. Copenhagen is the second most
expensive place on the trip (London was first).

Interesting; I'm not homesick at all. And the packing has worked extremely well. Hanging out with friends is great. Deena is encouraging me to go get a history degree overseas...well, anywhere. She liked Germany, but likes Copenhagen much better. There's a good lifestyle here, although not as materialistic as the US.

But damn, the fever sucks...and the phlegm.

I hope you feel better soon. It sucks to not feel well and travel. DK is one of my favorite places. But then again I lived there for 5 years.

I was just looking at some of my Denmark pictures. When I lived in Germany, I'd run up to Copenhagen whenever I missed Filipino food (my uncle lived there and he had a better kitchen than I did). I think you will like Roskilde. Nice seaport town. Good museum. I am looking at two little viking figurines I got from there right now (they're on the mantle).

Oh. Do you like licorice? If you like licorice, you should try some in Denmark. It's good stuff and less salty than Dutch licorice.

Feel better soon!
