We're a couple of days into Scandinavia and already we've seen so much and taken a few things away.
I've definitely noticed that the Danes seem a lot like high cheek-boned, blond waifs, who seem to have a natural ease. Boy are they tall and boy are they blonde. They really do seem to ride their bicycles everywhere and never seem to be bothered by the mass of people on the streets and in the shops and generally everywhere in the city. They're basically very friendly, without being cloyingly sweet.
There are more babies in prams than I've ever seen in one city. And yes, in fact, I did see a model - I mean mother - pushing her 2 small children in a very Scandinavian bicycle cart. Not a drop of sweat to be seen, I should say.
So far we've walked around the city, seen Rosenborg Castle, Tivoli Gardens, Roskilde Cathedral and the Viking Ship Museum.
Lot's to see and do. Here are some photos in the meantime:
