Why Copenhagen rocks

Some Copenhageners are odd. And I think that's just lovely.


These guys are playing empty Carlsberg beer bottles. Rather beautifully.

Danes are one of the happiest people on earth. And I think that is just awesome.


This girl is giving out free hugs.

When the sun is shining it's beautiful. And I think that is worth a glass of wine at lunch.


When it rains it's beautiful. And I think that is worth of a glass of wine at dinner.


Everyone loves to bike. And I think that is just environmental.


Don't you just wish this one was yours:


Also, the new Simpsons episodes are on.

I love Denmark.

i have those days too.

but suspect the danes are only happy because of low expectations. and you can't really tell it by looking at them.

but copenhagen is easy to be in love with. even in the rain.

hope it doesn't rain on your wedding today. it's awfully windy and occasionally rainy where we are, but møn is known for having more sunshine days per year than anywhere else in DK, so maybe.

Playing beer bottles definitely beats playing any other instrument!

And since you like Copenhagen at various hours of the day...........you might be in danger of over-indulging!

Have fun!

I will forever associate Denmark with the color turquoise. These photos are fab!

This is why an American girl from South Dakota follows a boy there and stays.... or maybe it is just the boy? I love this post. Helps me see the country - if only I could get there in September and see it myself for Blog Camp II

I really like Copenhagen and Denmark as well. It was a couple of years since I last visited, I'd love to go there again!

Beautiful pictures! I have never been to DK but it's definitely moved up my list of places to go. It looks amazing, can't wait to see more pix

Once again, thank you for allowing me to live vicariously through you. Now go drink more wine and take more photos. Thank you very much.

Awesome bike! I want one!

Did the blue bike have a holder for a wine glass? Looks like wine should be involved somehow...

julochka - Apparently Finns are the second happiest people on earth, which makes the whole study highly suspect anyways.
Am trying to upload more pictures of the wedding, but I think this hotel has it's internet through Zambia. Bad hotel karma?

Anandi - I know I'm overindulging, not just in danger of it...

TFM - They would like you to associate it with red and white though. I think Greece has dibs on turquoise?

JJ - I think this was the final drop that made me marry my Dane.

Suecae Sounds - Your close enough. Do it! It's worth it.

rxBambi - Denmark is Awesome and Copenhagen even awesomer. That's in the summertime though. Can't vouch for winter, which is when it might piss down for a week in a row. And that can get old.

Erin - The things I do for you...

Georgie - I think this effect can also be achieved with some paint in a spray bottle?

Marathoner - Wine is a constant factor with the photographer. Don't know about the bike.

Now, I'm really looking forward to photographing Copenhagen at blog camp! I want that bike!

Jelica said...

I would take that bike home. Have problems finding a decent one in Budapest, let alone a bike so beautifully blue.
