Every time I go to Copenhagen, I think:
why don't we go to Copenhagen more often? There is no good answer to that question. Copenhagen is awesome. But first: Malmö! Carrie, David's partner, was in town for a couple weeks on her international tour of doctoring awesomeness. Naturally we had to pop down to say hello, eat some foods and gallivant.
Malmö was extremely charming and had very cutesy buildings, beating the shit out of Gothenburg in that regard. Here's a prime example:
We mostly just walked around shopping for the afternoon but we did manage to visit two houses of art: some kind of design forum right in the center and the contemporary art museum, which was free! Check out their super-cool lockers above.
I get to be married to this person! He's away at the moment so I'm feeling all mushy.
It's kind of crazy how much time can pass and people are more or less the same as you left them. I hadn't seen Carrie in more than two years and we're not very good about keeping in touch but since David and I are always chatting, I know what's going on with her and probably she about me. We didn't skip a beat when we met up and that's always a nice feeling.
This is theoretically a "garden":
George wouldn't go for a second round so I had to provide the jumping.
We had fancy dinner at Matrummet, which was nice enough. I think my fine dining standards are way too high. George and I have decided to take something of a break - we want to be delighted again and it's far too expensive a venture to do as a throwaway.
After that, it was up early for Copenhagen! The time really flew by so we mostly went from walking to one place to eat, to museum, to train. But we did manage to pass by a really cool arthouse / coffeeshop / theater type of place.
Neither of my companions consented to sit on the floor for this portrait so again I had to play subject.
A basket of babies at Thorvaldsens Museum. Dude was big on sculptures.
And that was pretty much that!
These last two are from Konstrundan i Majorna (art walk in Majorna, a neighborhood in town). Lucia and I spent some serious time exploring the galleries and workshops of Majorna and there are
so many and it was really cool. We both bought a little art.
