In a fit of nostalgia, I went to Hellerup yesterday to say hi to some of the old dinosaurs still remaining at CIS. I was reminded, again, why I liked that place so much (and why I hated AIS too).

Despite some kind of mad building frenzy having taken place, many of the usual suspects were still exactly where I left them: in the chemistry lab on the C floor, in the library -- which did move, but that doesn't matter, it's still a library -- and in the English office which hasn't moved. Surprisingly, the dinosaurs all remembered me. I must have been a real horror (still am!). :-)

The weather in Denmark hasn't changed either: it was pouring down by the bucketload yesterday and today it's nice an sunny. The weatherman on Danish TV last night wouldn't give any government-backed guarantees, of course, but he was fairly certain that it would not rain today. We'll see...

I'm off to Copenhagen in a bit to buy some postcards and to look for a book on modern Danish architecture for Ann. Finding a book should not be too difficult, finding one in English might prove slightly more tricky, but I'm sure it can be done!

Funny how Copenhagen hasn't changed much. They dug a metro under the city, but they did it in a way that you hardly notice. Nyhavn is still Nyhavn and most of the shops on Strøget are still the same.
