AboutTo my surprise and delight a chamber orchestra took the stage and launched into a series of joyous overtures. They weren't Mozart but in that style, classical era and quite delightful, apparently written by a Danish contemporary. This was fun. This was civilised. This was why I had come to Europe - the seat of culture - not the seat of a roller coaster!

AboutDining a la fresco is something the Danes do at every opportunity. If they are to be believed, the weather only really allows this for a short time every year. During my month there the weather was like a Sydney winter - blue skies and 15 - 20 degrees every day.
