Copenhagen – Art, Down Under and Above

A trip to Copenhagen is never wrong – this time again with Viveka at myguiltypleasures. She has already written an interesting post on this, but I cannot resist doing one as well. I will do it My way – so, hopefully you will get a full report reading both!

This time Cisternerne, the Cisterns, the old water system, was to be visited.

Ingvar Cronhammar and Martin Hall are the artists behind this.

In the open air again – much warmer and less damp. First, a short rest, and then…

…we walked the majestic avenues of trees, where we met old and young,

…and many sweet dogs!

Impressive trees in even rows as well as standing alone

The Norwegian Cottage harmonized well with its surroundings

Suddenly a beautiful young couple floated by, with a photographer trailing behind. Making their day an eternal memory.

All this, of course, made us ready for some tasty food. In the company of a chef I trust, I chose a classic Danish ”Frokost”. And at the railwaystation we finished the day off with a ”Kartoffelkage”.

Today was a good day.

Travel theme: Dogs

Ailsa – this must be one of my absolute favourite themes…Dogs! My faithful companions through life. Please join in – we cannot get enough of faithful life companions!

Here are some of the dogs who met me, too – of which some still are my great friends.

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Sense of Seeing

So, there was a slight misunderstanding of Cee’s challenge…from my part. Hopefully I can repair that in the following challenges! Why not join in yourself!

Everything in Nature I love seeing – and the habits are …hiking, using binoculars and camera.

Indoors – I have moved nature inside my house. Today I have 171 pot plants.

Hiking is essential – preferably with my children and my dog.

Autumn will soon be here now – hopefully it will be a colourful one this year.

Spring is my favourite season. Maybe because my favourite colour is green.

Strangely enough, It happened to be the winter pictures I liked to see most of today.

My favourite – Robin – sitting outside my window.
