Laundromatte

Today Sam and Steph and I went to Copenhagen again to go to this laundromatte cafe:

Steph on the left, Sam on the right

As you can see, they color coded all of their books which I think is one of the coolest things and just might possibly do that to my book collection when I get home.  This cafe was a really good idea.  Its a laundromat, but its also a cafe.  I think it can barely constitute as a laundromat though because there is only one washing machine and only one dryer.

On the way to the cafe’, about a block away, we were walking in front of a kiosk and this man looked straight at me and said, you’re a long way from home, which I thought was weird and rude considering I wasn’t bothering him at all, but I can’t do anything about it so oh well.

On the way back we were trying to take the bus, but it turns out there was a motorcycle rally of some sort and it had completely blocked off all traffic so the buses on that route weren’t running.

The guy on the left is not amused about the whole no bus thing.

Conveniently though, we happened to be next to a cemetary and not just any cemetary, but the cemetary where Hans Christin Andersen was buried, so of course we had to walk through it and go see his grave.

Someone had thrown coffee on it because there was a dark stain.

We also saw this teenager peeing on a tree in the cemetary.  That was really disgusting, but he just looked at us as we passed so he obviously did not care.

The only complaint I have about Denmark is that it will be a beautiful gorgeous nice sunny day and then as soon as it gets dark, WOW, its freezing.  You don’t think to take a jacket with you in the beginning of the day because its so nice outside, so you better be home before it gets dark or else you are going to be miserable.  Steph and I learned this hard lesson when we were waiting for the bus tonight in Roskilde.  We were both unhappy.

First week in Denmark

Hey all!!!  I started a blog so I wouldnt have to send individual emails and so everyone could see all my pictures.  Ive been going back and forth between Roskilde and Copenhagen.  Both are incredibly awesome cities.

I dont know what this is

The first couple of days I was here it was ridiculously rainy all the time, I felt like a cloud was following me around Denmark, but then a couple of days ago the clouds cleared up and the sun came out so I havent even really needed a jacket.  Everyone here is so nice and Ive met a lot of great people.  Below is a picture of all the lovely ladies:

Throwing up their best gang symbols

I dont have class again until next Thursday so were going to Copenhagen to this cheap restaurant/laundromatte and Im planning on taking lots of 35mm pictures.  I also need to get a new school bag to hold all my school stuff.  Also, the school Im going to is probably the most THE MOST unorganized school I have ever encountered in my entire life.  I went down there on friday and it was awful.  Every person I talked to sent me to another person to talk to and so on and so on.  Finally after running around for about 2 hours I finally figured out who to talk to and she plopped me down right in the middle of class and Im about 1 out 3 people who’s first language is English.

Well Im about to run off to Copenhagen, au revoir ya’ll.
