Copenhagen

Celebrating 6 years of even more good times with Ethan.

We went ahead and took part in our favourite activities - art galleries, people watching and finding the best food.

With our Copenhagen card (which was very useful) we visited the ARKEN Museum of Modern Art where we enjoyed some of Van Gogh's work and life. Plus, a trip to the Kunsthal Charlottenborg was a fun (and enlightening) experience. The SMK - National Gallery of Denmark was however a true delight. Particularly the work of Lilibeth Cuenca Rasmussen and her Family Sha la la choreography (which can be found on YouTube).

Further to our enjoyment of the many art galleries, we went to the National Museum and learnt about Danish society and how it's evolved throughout history (lots about Vikings, too, which was pretty cool). We also visited the Round Tower and the Christiansborg Royal Stables.

Food-wise - an evening tasting menu at Høst was full of tasty morsels and the wine-pairing (which included a fine Japanese beer) was bloody good. A visit to the food halls is also recommended, although you'll be stuck for a place to sit around lunch time.


There was a lot packed into our little trip.

Friendly people, beautiful country, beautiful food, beautiful company.
