Copenhagen


IN EVERY ISSUE OF "ELLE DECOR", THERE IS A FEATURE ARTICLE, "ELLE DECOR GOES TO..." IN THE LATEST ISSUE, (SEP. 2007) ELLE DECOR TAKES US TO DENMARK AND SHOWCASES THE SITES AND SOUNDS OF COPENHAGEN. "A NORDIC NEXUS (and I thought my alliteration was something to be proud of!) OF OLD-WORLD ATMOSPHERE AND CUTTING-EDGE OUTLOOK, DENMARK IS A VERITABLE CAVALCADE OF EARTHLY DELIGHTS." I HAVE COMBED SOME OF MY MOTHER'S PHOTOGRAPHS FROM HER TRIP WITH HER SISTERS AND HAVE LONG-SINCE WANTED TO VISIT THE 17TH-CENTURY CANAL WITH ITS JEWEL-TONE ROW HOUSES THAT JUT STRAIGHT UP INTO THE SKY. ELLE DECOR HAS A STUNNING SHOT OF THE CANALS AT NIGHT, AND THE GLOWING CAFE LIGHTS AND BOAT LANTERNS ARE CHARMING, BUT I WAS THRILLED WHEN I FOUND THIS SHOT ON FLICKR TODAY. INDEED A "VERITABLE CAVALCADE OF EARTHLY DELIGHT!" (I'M GOING TO KEEP LOOKING AT PICTURES OF DENMARK - I'VE ALREADY DECIDED THAT A DENMARK DK GUIDE WILL BE THE NEXT ADDITION MY TRAVEL BOOK COLLECTION - AND I'LL GO LOOK UP THE WORD, "CALVALCADE." HAPPY COLOR!
