This weekend has been really fun, although now it is Sunday and they take their day of rest very seriously here in Denmark--there is really nothing to do.  But it is nice to relax, I downloaded a season of Friends and have not been able to stop watching it.  

Yesterday we went to Christiana, this little hippie commune type community on an island just outside of the city.  It is a really odd but awesome place--the government sort of ignores it and regards it as a 'social experiment,' which I think would be an appropriate title.  There are really crazy murals all over the place, but they do not let you take pictures (I snuck one in though!).  Not to mention they have awesome jewelry and hippied-out clothing, AND the best ice cream I have tasted in my life.  Anyway, it is just fun to walk around there and check out all of the 'eccentric' characters wandering around and playing various obscure musical instruments. 

The weather is still nice at times, but there have been outbursts of random rain.  Although, it is still warm when it rains, which is nice.  The temperature variation is less than 10 degrees every day (usually high in 60s and low in the 50s). But the rain can be annoying. Friday night we had to run home in it for about 10 minutes after we got off of the bus, but this was nothing when I found out that my friends had missed their bus stop and had to walk 3 miles to get back to the kollegium... thanks only to John's Iphone GPS (see mom and dad, wouldn't you feel SO much more comfortable if I had an iphone?!).

This is the old man singing "sweet Caroline" to my friend Caroline.  He happens to be at every pub we go to, sings the same songs and always says: "Oh you are AMERICANS! Well, you have an election coming up... DONT SCREW IT UP THIS TIME!"  

My lovely room--doesn't look like much but I love it!  Notice the beach picture for when I miss sunny California.

One of many murals in Christiana, but the only one I managed to sneak a picture of
