18 july
woke up this morning & established my danish hairstyle. i rode my bike to design zoo to check in with anna & have another look around. she wasn't in, but i photographed some of her work...





after that, i rode further into the downtown area to check out a photo exhibit that signe recommended, called "war and love." it was a photo documentary about immigrants from all over coming to scandinavia mostly because of war (as an escape) or love (to reunite in a safe place). pretty amazing photos, and an incredible exhibit space.




i rode through an area that is the "red light" district -- lots of porn shops & drugs, but safe enough. plus i was on my bike, so i wasn't worried about getting accosted by a hooker or anything. i'm pretty tough on my bike.the only thing is, everytime i walk away from it after parking & locking, i am obsessed with checking on it to make sure it won't get stolen. but people don't steal here! i can't help but sneak peeks to see if it's still where i left it... anyway, i discovered my first visual aid on the smørrebrød i've been reading about -- the open faced sandwiches... a little shrimp-y for me, but good to know.

i also discovered one of my new favorite shops -- donn ya dall (donnyadoll.dk), where i made my first purchases of denmark: a cool new bag to replace the one rach lent me 10 years ago, which i realized is decomposing all over my clothes, and a cool owl shirt that i'll have to photograph. i also found some possible emily bags -- she loves the kraghrosenberg.com bags. em?

ok - my patience for uploading photos has run out for today! more thorough photos from the past week are at:

Allisyn, It's Ma #2 and as Rebecca's Mother I wanted to leave your 2nd message.
You are so adaptable to your environment...I wish that I could be more like you in that respect.
As a matter of fact, for my 60th birthday, as a homage to you...I am going to be more damn adaptable!
Love,
Jake's Nana
