Espantos #478

There's something Nordic about the way nordics do things... here are some more pictures from Copenhagen. 

Here we have a nordic traffic jam of ferraris; there are also traffic jams of bikes though I have not witnessed those.

In general there are more bikes than motorized vehicles

and they are found pretty much everywhere, often unlocked;

here at the parliament's entrance, on a Sunday.

Royal palaces have peculiar decoration that can be regionally appropriate,

extremely sober as in this throne room,

or extremely lavish as in Rosenborg Castle.

Another distinctive (for me) nordic mark comes from their water fountains

which can be less, or more intuitive;

my favourite sort of looked like a liver;

even when they try to be "less" nordic, it's not that successful.

 Another nordic feature, this time in interior design,

 is the way they make their (extremely comfortable) beds,

and also their beautiful straight line furniture.

Architecturally speaking there's something to be said

about the functionality of interior spaces,

 tin roofings,

 and their outdoor traditional or

 modern design, as seen in the Copenhagen Opera House.

Finally, we saw an incredible number of tesla cars

and even a Tesla dealer in downtown Copenhagen;

finally understood how those cars have both a back and a front trunk.
