Streets of Stroget.

waking up to a misty morning in Denmark.


woke up too early and the other 2 girls were still asleep. 
I need my morning breakfast, so I made cereal and had some biscuits for myself first, while waiting for them to be awake!


when both of them were awake, we changed out and walked to the supermarket.

this are the numbers in the lift.
they dont have a level 1.
their ground level is lvl 0.


right outside the entrance of our apartment.
they have a tapping system for security purposes.


the mega-difficult-to-find housing.


we needed some groceries coz the fridge is empty and we though it's a good idea to stock-up!


yay to empty roads!


this is the exterior of the apartment that we'll be staying in.


on our way to the nearest supermarket which is approx 10-15mins walk away.
tt's meimei and her apartment mate.


pretty flowers just below our block.

  
awkward poses with the sunflower.


it's strange coz among the bed of other pretty little flowers, there's only ONE sunflower.
the attention seeker.


soon, we arrived at Fotex!

that's the name of the supermarket we were heading to.


time for some grocery shopping!


fruits and meat.


i love grocery shopping! :'>

asian vs ang moh.


a pic with the apartment mate.
sigh, i feel inferior.
#youknowwhatimean

perhaps i'll get some of these for benben. 
hopefully it doesnt melt on the journey home!


apples! saviour of the day!



if you can see, it says 'world's smallest tomato'. really?


a pic with meimei!

oh, and somehow they only sell chilled white eggs.
we couldnt find the normal beige eggs on the shelves.
why oh why?


anw, meimei hasnt start school yet, so we took the chance to explore parts of Aarhus for the whole day!


on the bus to Stroget!


going by 'punch-card' system.


soon after, we've arrived at our destination.



on the street of Stroget.



people there are really tall and big.
so are their dogs!


a street performer with his dog.


then we chanced upon a big 'canal'.



somewhat like clark quay.
bars and pubs + the sg river.


walked on and we saw this block of thingy.
no idea what was it.
it was just in the middle of nowhere, but it reminds me of the bottle of vitamins I took when I was young!


we were hungry as soon as we arrived.
so we went around looking for lunch, and meimei bumped into 'Linda'. haha.

  
the smell was too good, so we decided to try their wrap here.


one of the main probs about finding food here is we have no idea how to read those words on the menu!
not in english.

we just had to either ask the other local customers around or just guess.


the 2 flab of meat.
chicken (left) and beef (right).


shaving beef!


generous serving of beef!


wrapping it up really quickly.


and there's our wrap!
ordered the set, so it comes with a drink.


it's really interesting coz the bottle actually states 'share a coke with _____'.
every bottle has a different name!

randomly, we just took 'share a coke with Alex'.


the wrap that's feels like 12-inch long!


our beef wrap!


took the window seats.

enjoying the view, enjoying our wrap.


a pic with the signboard before leaving.


pretty white building behind us, so it's a pic worthy moment!



some of the dogs here look so fierce.


sun was too glaring.
so put on our shades for another pic taken.

  
spot the photobomber!
hahaha, so cute!


buildings along the street.
so alike those at USS!


it's a nice shopping street with quite a number of H&Ms.

this is the first H&M we spotted.


really pretty interior they have.



saw another along the street and ahhh, i wanna go in!


oh wait, sidetrack a second.
look at the mother cycling with her baby in front.
why so cute one!


so back to H&M, yes, we went in.

shopping for footwear!


i really like the boots, but it's not comfortable.
looks nice, but it hurts my feet :/

  
can only snap a few more pics with it. heh.


i really like this bag too, but it's too exp.
think it's arnd sgd60+


sighness, why so exp!?

I flipped a coin to decide whether to buy, and the coin says no.
but i still bought, coz inside me, I wannnnnnnt!

happy me after shopping!


hehe, and right after my first purchase, meimei told me to control abit so as not to overspend!

walked past Magasin.
have yet to take a look there, but we will do so one of these days coz they have sales going on!


their post-box.
 so vintage.



feeling happy-posey after shopping!


  
the entrance of an open-air restaurant.


totally doesnt look like it.

crossed the roads and walked on further, but no idea where we were.
just kept walking. lol.


combined some pics coz there're really lots of pics for just one day!


the buildings that look like legos!


clear blue sky :'>


this is Denmark.


pics with meimei :'>


sunny friday!


the sun was really huge today.
so hot that mei and i actually perspired.


street performers spotted again :D


walked on alittle further and we spotted another H&M!


so hot that meimei and i went to remove our tights at H&M. haha.

in need of accessories!


spotted a pretty chocolate shop.



Denmark doesnt really have Starbucks.
we found one, but it's closed for a private event.


and we thought we could go grab a coffee or somehitng and chill.
sigh... unfair!

walked on and spotted Nespresso.

also has some event going on!
what's with that!?


well well, aft which, we gave up wanting to grab a coffee and chill.

just walked on the streets and enjoy the breeze.


the sky is just too pretty!



they call this, 'clear blue sky'.


more street performance going on which caught meimei's attention.


though they're old, but they play really good music.


aww~ people selling helium balloons on the street!


walked into a shop named 'Tiger'.
the locals here pronounce it as 'tee-ger' not 'ti-ger'.

spotted 2 different kind of scissors they sell.
one normal one, and the other, a multi-cutter kind!


like wow, that's interesting.
good for cutting strips of papers! 

walked out and saw boots on sale!


immediately put my foot in! haha!


hehe, i like!
if only sg has 4 seasons!


spotted some street performers.


they are really goood! (Y)
I should take a vid the next time i spot them!


turned around, and it's a shop behind me!

immediately started browsing.
teehee, ever ready to shop! :'>


oh, and i like my hair colour in the above pic!
when the sun shines, it looks nice ^,^

trying to blend in, but oh my, I look petite next to them!


we needed to go to the bus interchange to settle the issues regarding the bus tickets.
we saw the signs on the way and just tried our luck.

brick-like walls everywhere!



after walking all over, we finally found the bus interchange!


had to do a bus-pass so that we can travel for unlimited times on buses in zones 1 and 2, just like buying a concession card in sg.
but they needed a passport photo and i did'nt bring any!

bobian, so meimei took a pic of my face and we just went to print it at some shop.
ahhh, why must it be on a day that i did'nt put on makeup!? :/

ah well, i didn't have a choice.

these are our bus-passes.


after settling all that, we bused back home to make our dinner.

a fish-eye view of the sun that only sets at around 9pm here.


it's Carbonara Pasta for dinner tonight!


added some capsicum.


and some chicken meat.


and tadah!
3 portions of carbonara pasta done! :D


could have been tastier if the sauce was thicker!


prettiest sight when the sun sets.
#nature
