Random Danish Thoughts

Here are just a couple of random things I've been thinking about:

Pigeons. For some bizarre reason I have the overwhelming urge to take a running start and jump and stomp with both feet on a pigeon. I know it's cruel, and I would never do it, but they're everywhere and I can't help it.

I love the sound of: car tires on cobblestone roads, bike bells, the voice of the woman who announces the stops on the metro.

Pastries are the best things every invented. There are bakeries everywhere here and the pastries are soooo good. Yesterday I had a marzipan wrapped rich chocolate dough thing. On Friday I had a wonderful piece of chocolate cake, on Wednesday I had a really good cinnamon roll thing, and back and back. If I spend all my money here on pastries I'll feel like it was worth it. And walking by the bakery by my apartment everyday, with its wafting smells, is torturous.

Museums are great, I've been to quite a few since I've been here and have enjoyed them greatly, especially since a lot of them are free or are paid for by my program.

I like speaking in Danish even though I don't do it that often.
