Copenhagen

I'm in Denmark now in a cute library in the narrow back streets of the old part of the city. It's very pretty here and the cafe culture is something to behold. Even the public libraries have great cafes inside them. I found a hotel not far from here and will be here until Saturday when I catch the train to Berlin to meet my girlfriend. I haven't seen her for almost two months so it's going to be a real blast!!! I am also craving to have a proper conversation with her. I now feel quite used to travelling by myself and keeping my own company. It actually does take a little while to adjust to that but realise how much I enjoy conversing, chatting, just plain gossiping to friends and colleagues.

I'm working on a book review today and then I think I'll take the afternoon off and go and see another Copenhagen sight. Yesterday I went to the National Museum and spent a good part of the morning in just one room of the museum. There is a special exhibition on about Denmark during WWII with a focus on the resistance movement. It was an excellent exhibition. Extremely interesting and well presented. Well my one hour of free internet access is up so I think I may be forced to go have a coffee before starting some real work...

Yes, back again this morning. It,s good coffee too. Hope you enjoyed your thanksgiving festivities. Did you get any snow? We got some in Sweden on Friday, better late than never...

We got snow yesterday and today (the 3rd and 4th of December)--but none for Thanksgiving.

Are you coping well with winter-weather, when you're accustomed to it being spring?
