Today I visted the Frederiksberg Castle which at one point was the royal palace. Today it is the Danish History & Art Museum. Apparently one of the King Christians (There were like at least 10 Christians) finally got sick of how cold the palace was & decided to move, which is now the current palace located inside of Copenhagen.
The original castle burned down... we are told it was because Tobacco finally made it to Denmark & the Dane's build everything out of wood & as a result of too much beer..They drink a lot of beer here...The place burnt down.
Off topic, but I think the super bowl is on right now no? I don't even know who's playing it. I'm embarrassed... Here I thought I'd be searching for an American bar to watch the Pats kick some butt & no...Here I am, a defeated New England fan typing up notes for a group project on Design theory in society. Woof!
Okay so the castle...
It was very beautiful but (as I mentioned Arctic Circle) IT'S FREEZING TODAY! I have been so cold all day. The castle was in fact freezing, and though gorgeous just terribly too cold. So DAD while our house may be frigid is is warmer then the Frederiksberg Castle. Of Coarse Fryeburg, Maine is a little further south then Copenhagen.
Did you know, back in the day beds were made really short because people were afraid if they were laying down under covers the devil would assume they were dead & take their souls. So if any of you readers have a guilty conscience you might wanna think about propping yourself up. Or if you have bronchitis, sinus infection and pneumonia you might wanna prop yourself up so you can breathe, just some advice from personal experience.
Last night I was proud of myself for adventuring to and from a bar by myself. If you are worried about my safety you can read previous blogs search baby carriage. So while I went by myself I was meeting friends there. It was a wild basement bar (That's the name) and there were a bunch of young Dane's smashing glasses and dancing to 90's American hip hop...Like I'm blue i ba de ba di.
As I previously mentioned rather then watching the supear bowl (said like a french man) I am working a group project. It is evident I've become distracted and must return to my work. Or maybe I'll make a bowl of rice?
Skål! (Cheers!)
