My Semester in Copenhagen: Tillykke med fødselsdagen, Dronning Margrethe!
http://chelseaincopenhagen.blogspot.com/2010/04/tillykke-med-fdselsdagen-dronning.html
Friday, April 16, 2010. Tillykke med fødselsdagen, Dronning Margrethe! Today Queen Margrethe II turned 70 years old! She came out and waved and the crowd went crazy. Thousands of Danish flags were being proudly waved and everyone was trying to get a picture of the Queen. This proved to be a difficult task though because every picture I took seemed to be of a Danish flag and not of the Queen. And sure enough she came out two more times and gave the Danish people what they wanted. Then she got into her...

My Semester in Copenhagen: May 2010
http://chelseaincopenhagen.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 17, 2010. Vi ses, Denmark. Jeg vil savne dig. There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing- you'd think I would have learned this in Minnesota but I was way too optimistic in Copenhagen and thus frequently under dressed. Do NOT cross the street unless the little man in green. It does not matter if it is 3am and there are no cars or people in sight, you must wait. You can set your watch to the buses but you can bet that the trains will be late. Always. Hopefully I can get home.

My Semester in Copenhagen: My long weekend in Paris
http://chelseaincopenhagen.blogspot.com/2010/05/my-long-weekend-in-paris.html
Tuesday, May 4, 2010. My long weekend in Paris. Last week there was some sort of religious holiday in Denmark but no one I asked seemed to know what it was all about. Regardless, it meant that I had a couple days off from class and my friend Kirsten and I took advantage of the extra time by going to Paris! We saw so much and the weather was absolutely gorgeous so it was a really enjoyable way to start the day and get acquainted with the city. We saw the Gold Dome (Yes, it's real gold), the church whe...

My Semester in Copenhagen: The beginning of the end
http://chelseaincopenhagen.blogspot.com/2010/05/beginning-of-end.html
Saturday, May 15, 2010. The beginning of the end. After I got back from Paris I wad one week left of classes and it was a busy one. I had three papers to write, an oral presentation (in Danish! There is a castle in the middle of the park. That Jan told me is where the king kept all of his mistresses. It's up on a hill so that the king could see if the queen was coming and make his lady caller leave quickly. So scandalous! There is a golf course in the garden now and there were a bunch of deer just chilli...

My Semester in Copenhagen: March 2010
http://chelseaincopenhagen.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 22, 2010. Basically I'm Danish. Now if I could only say rødgrød med fløde they would officially let me into the club. Wednesday, March 17, 2010. Last Thursday I decided to skip my cancer class in order to meet two very important people at the airport- my mom and my sister! And the next four days were jam packed with important Danish things to do, see and eat! Day 2 started off with a tour of Christiania, a small. Day 3 was full of soccer, or should I say fodbold? First, my dedicate. This we...

My Semester in Copenhagen: February 2010
http://chelseaincopenhagen.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 21, 2010. Walking in a winter wonderland. This past week Denmark decided that it would be really fun to pretend it was Norway or Greenland or even Minnesota. It's been snowing quite a bit and the cold is not going away. It's nothing I can't handle, I mean I am a Minnesotan after all, but it's a little upsetting that the winter I spend in Copenhagen is the coldest one they've had in decades. It was time to head home and meet Anne for night at the theater! More Pictures from the brewery:.

My Semester in Copenhagen: January 2010
http://chelseaincopenhagen.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 30, 2010. To be or not to be. Today I went to Kronborg Castle in Helsingor or as it is more commonly know, "Hamlet's Castle." It was a really interesting trip and I learned a lot! The castle is beautiful and full of original artwork and tapestries. Me in front of Kronborg. This is Frederik II, the king who built Kronborg. A painting on the ceiling in the king's apartment. The C with the 4 in it stands for Christian IV. A jail cell that gets narrower and narrower so you can move the gate...
