Endelig! Den Kongelige Familie
OK, so I'll admit my main motivation for getting back on the blog yesterday was so I could post a million pictures of the Danish royals and a whole lot of resplendent horses today... The Belgian royals - His Majesty King Philippe and Her Majesty Queen Mathilde - are visiting Denmark this week, so I … Continue reading Endelig! Den Kongelige Familie
Arken
So it's been a really long time since I've made it to the 'write blog post' item on my to do list - trivial things like 'buy crib', 'learn Danish', 'finish work' and 'research how not to kill a baby' have been taking precedence. Somewhat worryingly that last task remains incomplete, but here I am anyway - … Continue reading Arken
Sne!
Last week winter finally decided to show up with some snow and subzero temperatures. Despite being Scandinavian, Copenhagen only gets snow once or twice a year, so the novelty factor is extremely high. I thought everyone sweltering in Sydney would like to see how the other half are living right now, so I took some photos … Continue reading Sne!
Jul det’ cool

I have, however, been keeping track of … Continue reading Jul det’ cool

The name is misleading because it's not actually a hunt - it's a cross country horse race. That minor detail aside, everyone competes in hunting get up and technically they are chasing two riders who set … Continue reading Hubertusjagten
Efterår
After a very lovely late burst of summer in September, October really decided to change things up. One day the max daily temperature just fell ten degrees overnight, from 22ºC to 12ºC, and all of a sudden it was autumn. The good news is that Copenhagen is very, very beautiful when all the leaves are … Continue reading Efterår
En dejlig tur gennem byen og kanalerne
It's been a pretty busy round our place these last few weeks, mainly because we were both desperately trying to pass our Module 2 Danish language test. Thankfully we're through that hurdle, although the reward for our triumph is just to be thrown straight into the next module. Module 3 apparently represents a real step up in … Continue reading En dejlig tur gennem byen og kanalerne
