Yes, once again I'm aware that that is not how the actual expression goes, yet it seems to make much more sense, and holds the same meaning here in Denmark. You see, a blue sky in the middle of winter, is a very rare thing which is why today was a lovely day despite the 25 degree weather.
This week was pretty much consumed completely by school work, gray skies, and windy days. The temperature itself isn't so bad... but it's the wind that can really make or break it. And yet again, my attempts to get anywhere on time were foiled by the faulty regional train system.
But don't worry, the week got better from there.
Last night we went out to the LA bar and had a good time. It's very interesting to see what American music makes it big here. Like us, they enjoy the occasional throw back song, which must explain why everyone went crazy when they played "It's my life" by Bon Jovi.
Today I woke up to a beautiful blue sky! Not only that, but I could actually see the sun, which is even rarer than seeing anything blue in the sky. My friends and I took it as an omen that we needed to do something different today, so we went to SWEDEN!!!
Fun Fact: From Kobenhavn K (central station) to Malmo (sweden) it takes 25 minutes.
From Kobenhavn K to Trekroner (my station) it takes 30 minutes. That's right folks, it's quicker to go to Sweden than to my home
....
Fun Fact 2: Kobenhavn K --> Malmo = $28 round trip.
Kobenhavn K --> Trekroner = $36 round trip... makes no sense!
We experienced Sweden through the food and the shops... sadly the chocolate factory closed before we got there :(
Picture of us in the streets of Sweden... with cool fake musician statues
Lastly, I finally got my CPR card today.. which means I'm officially part of the Danish Healthcare System. YAY free health care.
