on our third day, we had just the morning in copenhagen, and went to the dansk design center and tivoli. a highlight of the museum was seeing designs by wood wood in a fashion exhibit. their work was new to me, and i loved their colors and mix of patterns. i was reluctant to go to tivoli, since i don’t like amusement parks, but then was glad we did. i liked seeing the old murals, which made me sad again that the mary blair murals at disneyland no longer exist…


then we crossed the water to sweden! we took the train to malmo, where we picked up a rental car, and then walked around the main malmo shopping area. i found granit (a nice muji-like store) and a few other good stores… we only had a couple hours in malmo, and then got on the road to goteborg. that drive up the west coast of sweden was so beautiful… the landscape was constantly changing. it reminded me of california one minute, and new england the next.

we stayed at a really nice new hotel in goteborg, call the first g. the location was a little strange, right above the central train station, but we had one of the best dinners of our trip from the hotel restaurant. mmm, it was so good!

  1. Loving your blog, so full of beautiful images, there’s such a sense of stillness and tranquility to each one, I really don’t know how you do it.

    On another note, I’ve been tagged and I had to find people to tag so you’re it. Sorry if you’ve already been tagged before.. Come and visit for the rules (that’s part of the rules).

  4. I see you´ve been visiting Nygårdsanna´s store in Malmö! Did you buy anything…? Just adore her A/W 2007 collection. Also visit nygardsanna.se!

  5. love those murals. i haven’t been to disneyland in a few years (i wrote my B.A. thesis on a disney park, so i used to be quite the habitual visitor!), and it’s amazing how much has changed since i was 8 or 9 years old. i’ve been meaning to go to UCLA to look at the mary blair mural there…maybe another time.

  7. That hotel is right opposite our office I´m looking at it right now. We have lunch there occasionally.

  10. For some reason I’ve never really consider Denmark before when I’ve considered places to travel to some day. Now, thanks to you, it is heart’s desire number one. Scandinavia had always been percolating in my brain, but it is now, officially, an obsession.
