I started the visit in Copenhagen, and spent the better part of two days wearing out my shoe soles around the city. The weather was not bad for November?a bit of rain the first day, mostly sunshine the second day. Copenhagen is not my home town, but it is the place where my parents lived the last years of their lives, and I have my close childhood friend Beata there, so I have many reasons to visit. I know the city well, but I enjoy discovering parts of it where I have not been for many years. This was the case on this trip, when I walked around Christianshavn, a very pictoresque part of the city, and visited the New Carlsberg Glyptotek, an art museum next to Tivoli, founded by the son of Carlsberg?s founder in the 19th century, a truly magnificent place that owes its existence to the Danes? fondness of beer. I think my last visit there was with my father, and as he died in 2004, it was some time ago. A word about Copenhagen?s geography: the city is spread over two islands, Sj?lland (Zealand) where the main part lies, and Amager, a small island which houses Copenhagen Airport and, close to the centre, a neighbourhood called Christianshavn, a lovely place where I had not been for several years. So come along on a 70-image walk through the capital of my country: http://www.frozenlight.eu/cph_nov2020/ As always, comments and critique are welcome and appreciated.
