Danish Holiday - Part Two (Art and Sand)

Thursday, August 2, 2012


A few more pictures from my brother's visit to Denmark...
Aarhus and the West Coast




After Copenhagen, we went to Aarhus, which is the second largest city in the country. I think the highlight for all of us was the art museum -- ARoS. Fortuitously, there was a temporary exhibition of my favorite contemporary artist, Tony Oursler. We were also very lucky that one of my coworkers was kind enough to give us a day tour of the west coast of Denmark. It was so beautiful -- full of dunes, slowly-eroding German bunkers from the Second World War, colorful rocks, and "sea junk." Two very memorable days and a wonderful trip overall!

A Lot of Laughs Were Had

Saturday, July 2, 2011

I had a wonderful week visiting with my brother, Bennett! It had been a long time since we had a few days just to hang out and not worry about schedules, jobs and the general responsibilities of life!
 
After picking him up from the train in Michigan, we walked around downtown South Bend, Indiana. The Monkees were playing that night, but we ultimately decided to forgo purchasing the quite expensive tickets. Later, we randomly happened on a park with a variety of geese, ducks and other fowl.
 
On Wednesday we visited an Amish town in Indiana called Shipshewana. During the summer they hold a huge flea market with tons of oddities (a giant log house, anyone?) as well as tons of produce and other foodstuffs. I am really glad I had a chance to visit the little town once more before leaving the country.

Overall, it was a great week and I was sad to see my little bro go back home!
