My eyes are numb. My feet are sore. My hunger for adventure is shaken AND stirred in all of the right ways. I have seen The Promised Land.
..
Just kidding. But I have seen lots of ridiculously beautiful and positively overwhelming sites of enormous historical importance. And I have tasted the wine. (It was gross.)
..
The double cone fountain in the Royal Library gardens
..
The Royal Library/ Black Diamond
..
My blueberry cheesecake and Italian wine from BioMio, an entirely organic and delicious restaurant where a Scan|Design (my fellowship supporters) welcome-to-Copenhagen dinner was held on Tuesday. I tried, but I didn’t get through much of the wine…
..
AND THEN. Frederiksborg Slot. The Danish castle that dates back to the early 1600s. It experienced a horrible winter fire in the 1800s and was reconstructed and repurposed as a museum in 1878. Alright. Now I’m just going to bombard you with pictures for a little while…
..
It was a dark and stormy night…
..
The beautiful facade of the castle!
..
The castle grounds
..
Me. And trees. (I didn’t have a prince to take a stroll across the grounds with me, so I just sat and sulked for a while.)
..
The church– the detail in here was unbelievable.
..
And to top it off, this. Is a door handle. Like what the actual heck. It led to the ballroom, where I had to sulk yet again at my lack of princes (you know, for dancing and stuff).
..
Alright, time for bed. Maybe next time I’ll give a Danish lesson.
