Midterm hell week is basically eating up all my time nowadays; nevertheless, lots of stuff has happened in the past week so here we go:
| Once upon a time, I went to a museum named Louisiana |
| There was an exhibit on self portraits and a lot of saggy boobs in said portaits, but I was more excited by the mirror room. |
| Bonus points: The museum backs into the sea! |
| Then my host parents and I went to Kronborg Castle in Helsingør, the setting for Hamlet. |
| Elsinor it was called, and it was huge |
| It even had a stone guardian said to come to life if Denmark were to ever be threatened. |
| Then we went to Sweden! |
| Helsingborg, Sweden, like Helsingør, also likes their castles... |
| ...and walking streets. How pretty the Swedes are! |
| Yet I still found this Swedish bacon flavoured cheese in a tube rather odd. Still bought it though |
| Later in the week, my Nordic Mythology class went to the Viking Ship Museum. They had ships... |
| ...and statues of Freyr. He was the Nordic god of pleasure and always had a boner. How fitting. |
| After, we saw some burial mounds and did outdoorsy stuff... |
| ...but it was cold, so we brought out the "Viking Blood" aka mead |
| And we all took shots and were merry |
The End.

Sounds like good stuff. I'm sure visiting the castle makes "Hamlet" seem a bit more real.
ReplyDeleteBest thing about this is obviously bacon related products.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! The historical sites in North America only go back a few hundred years. - Wayne :)
