Amy and I took a picturesque bicycle ride up the north coast above Copenhagen to take in a few sites. This is when I got to check out the Zaha Hadid museum that I already wrote about. We stopped at a little gas station designed by architect Arne Jacobsen in the 1950's. So perfect, that there was a tiny "Smart Car" filling up as we snapped some pictures of this gem. Look at that red clock on the white tile, sweet! Maybe one day there will be a sea change and whatever fancy new alternative energy we are using will require rethinking the design of our "re-charge" stations.
Dyrehavn (Deer Garden) is an old royal hunting grounds that is now a huge park and deer preserve. Riding along dirt roads we would pass herds of deer only a hundred feet away--there was always a king buck that carried a rack of antlers 2-3 feet tall. These guys were living so posh, they were practically domestic. Beautiful vistas and meadows.
