Family, food and shopping

We've had a great day today, filled with family time, great food, shopping and some errands.
We met up with my grandma, her husband and my cousins again this afternoon, in the center of Copenhagen. We did some shopping, some walking around, and a little bit of relaxing before we headed out to dinner.
The girls were in the Guinness World Records museum when we arrived, so Daniel decided to pose with the world's tallest man while we were waiting for them to get back out.


We went to a place called Riz Raz, that my cousin Jenny found online, which has a great vegetarian/vegan buffet.
We talked and stuffed our faces with delicious food, and we were all pretty darn full by the end of it, before saying goodbye for now and going our separate ways.
It's been really nice seeing them all again and getting to spend some time with them!
My grandma is incredibly sweet, caring and generous, and she gave me this beautiful necklace that she bought when she was in need of some jewelry, and thought of me as she figured she wouldn't really wear it again. And treated me to some bits at H&M. So sweet!




She always helps us out, which we are incredibly grateful for. She's always there for me and makes me feel like a grandchild should!

Loads of love,
Malin

Tivoli and family

My grandma, her husband and my two cousins arrived in Copenhagen this morning!
We met them at Tivoli, which we've never been too before, and walked around, talked, looked around, and had some coffee.





The girls (my cousins) took a bunch of rides, while the rest of us took it easy and spent some time catching up.




Tivoli is awesome. A bunch of great rides, fun stuff to do and to look at.





Daniel and my cousin Jenny decided to take this ride together, and apparently got an awesome view of Copenhagen while hanging up there waiting for the fall.


It was really nice seeing them all again! Tomorrow we're going to spend some time together while exploring the center of Copenhagen, hopefully.

Loads of love,
Malin

Weekend with the brother-in-law

We've had a lovely weekend with Daniel's brother David visiting!
We weren't so lucky with the weather, but that didn't stop us from going out strolling around town.
We finally did some kind of "touristy" stuff here, and got to see more of Copenhagen than we have already. We went shopping, looking for treasures and flea markets, ate tasty food, went to Christiania to admire all the beautiful houses and surroundings, and checked out the dock area in Christianshavn.
Amongst others:

We (they) found a tall slide to slide down!





Daniel and I ate some tasty vegan food from 42 Raw while David enjoy his from Paleo.



We said hi to swans and pigeons.


Took a picture of Christiania's sign (you're not allowed to take photos inside Christiania).


Took a peek at a beautiful houseboat in Christianshavn (hey kitty cat!).



Enjoyed the view of the great piece of architecture that is Operaen.



Now it's back to everyday life, with project exam work, more job interviews, and again, more project exam work.
Hopefully I'll be able to sneak in some walks in the park, perhaps a picnic if the weather allows it, and maybe even an Italian greyhound walk the coming Sunday!

Loads of love,
Malin
