USA visitors


Earlier in March, my dad, Dolores, Marian and David all visited me in Copenhagen for a few days  of beautiful sunshine, exploring, and cafe hopping! Here we are (with Sam!) at a bodega in Norrebro, the area in Central Copenhagen where I live(they call it the Brooklyn of Copenhagen- Lots of young hipster couples pushing strollers, coffeshops, used bookstores, boutiques). Here, we are lounging in candlelight(as always) drinking cocktails and eating cheese. Beyond the window in the background is the huge, beautiful graveyard where Neils Bohr, H.C. Anderson, Soren Kierkegaard are all buried.  Around dusk that day we searched the graveyard to find the famous Bohr as Professor Carter lectured his very engaged audience about the play "Copenhagen",  Bohr and Heisenberg and the making of the atomic bomb.
Dad just couldn't get enough of Denmark, so he came back for a trip to the modern Louisiana Art Museum, in the rural suburbs right on the water about 30 minutes north of Copenhagen. The museum had lots of outdoor sculptures.  Dad's posing with some bizarre creations of artist Max Ernst .
Artsy shot by Ken. Again he takes on the role as camera instructor. ;D We both particularly enjoyed the exhibit of photographer Andreas Gursky. 








One of my new favorite breakfast spots in Norrebro called the Laundromat Cafe.
