At være eller ikke at være…
Way back in August, and with half the Ashe clan in tow, we visited Helsingør for the first time. Better known as Elsinore, it's castle Kronborg provides the setting for Hamlet. We planned our visit to coincide with the annual summer Shakespeare Festival, because we are very cultured and learned (NB: I have never actually read Hamlet), but somehow … Continue reading At være eller ikke at være…
Tilbage i aktion
After what feels like months, but turns out was only three weeks, I finally remembered I'm supposed to be updating this thing. I'd like to pretend my absence was due to our very exciting expat life, but in reality I just keep getting more and more spurious injuries that have led to some very boring and inactive … Continue reading Tilbage i aktion
Spise godt
We have had a few really lovely culinary experiences in the last few weeks, making the most of Denmark's thriving food scene. A few weekends ago we went to Stedsans ØsterGRO, which as per their website is 'a restaurant placed in the greenhouse of Scandinavia's first rooftop farm'. Of course Copenhagen has a rooftop community garden, and of … Continue reading Spise godt
Jeg hjerte hjorte
I'm going to dwell on past adventures again in this post. A few weekends back, during the week-long 'summer', we rode our bikes up the coast. Our plan was to stop at various swimming piers along the way before eventually ending up at Dyrehaven. We kicked off proceedings with a quick swim at Svanemøllen pier, before riding … Continue reading Jeg hjerte hjorte
Når solen skinner
I've mysteriously busted my ankle sometime in the last few weeks, so I've been stuck in the house more than I'd like lately. On the plus side, there is no better time to be on forced bed-rest than when the Olympics are on. I'm doing some high level multitasking right now - writing this post while … Continue reading Når solen skinner
Jægersborg Dyrehave
Onwards to part two of our day of hire-bike adventures (we really did a lot that day - no wonder we all woke up feeling like a truck had hit us). Ordrupgaard conveniently sits just below Jægersborg Dyrehave, a mad deer park that is home to over 2,000 deer. It was a beautiful afternoon to be careering around Dyrehaven, and … Continue reading Jægersborg Dyrehave
Op til Ordrupgaard
The festival of Anna and Steve continues in this post - we must have packed a lot into a week, because it's making me exhausted just writing about it. No trip to Copenhagen would be complete without hooning around the place on bikes. With one day left of forecast sunshine (or at least not rain), we grabbed some … Continue reading Op til Ordrupgaard
Mere Møn biltur
Having shaken off any remaining bird lice from Nyord, it's onwards to days two and three of our Møn road trip. We headed east for a day of hiking around the cliffs and forests of Møns Klint. Our first aim was to scale Timmesøbjerg to see the oldest beech trees in Denmark. This hill was apparently used as … Continue reading Mere Møn biltur
