Dulce de leche frap

2007-06-16T19:36:00.000+02:00

Extremely sweet but chilling. Which is much needed as the New York temperatures are in the high 80's. Gonna have lunch at Katz' deli in 10 minutes :)

Everlasting Danish memories

2007-06-15T10:37:00.000+02:00

It's funny to see how your country is 'sold' to foreigners. In Copenhagen airport I found a stand with the so-called everlasting Danish memories. The brass viking head with glued-on hair is not exactly my favorite. Wonder what the New Yorkers think of their not-so-everlasting 'I love NY' t-shirts...

Photos on Picasa Web

2007-06-14T17:23:00.000+02:00

Having used Picasa Web for a little while now, I have found that it's a bit more cool than Flickr which I've used for photo-albums so far. I have a LOT of images that I want to put online, but it takes time to find the 50 best out of the usually 300-600 images I take when travelling. Anyway, so far seven albums made their way to Picasa - and counting.

Stay tuned for more albums :)

Morning lineup

2007-06-13T09:27:00.000+02:00

Wednesday is Jäger-day. It's a fine tradition that is backed up by the diversity of shot-glasses from all around the world. At least three are from New York, but we have glasses from as far away as Peru, Argentina, Hawaii and Key West. Soon a glass from the Seychelles will join :)

Come again?

2007-05-31T07:53:00.000+02:00

I might be going to New York again in a few weeks. My brother is attending a four-day course there, so I'm thinking of paying him a visit. Gotta see if I can get time off from work and a cheap ticket. Let's see...

Confirmed: Seychelles

2007-05-24T12:41:00.000+02:00

Plane-tickets are confirmed. We're traveling with Condor and got the tickets at a reasonable price (approx. 1000 US$/person).
We will stay on 3 different islands: Mahe, La Digue and Praslin (in that order). The hotel on La Digue is confirmed: Patatran - so is the AVIS car rental on Mahe. There are no private cars on La Digue and I haven't decided yet, if we'll need a car on Praslin.

Now I need to figure out inter-island transportation. It's probably gonna be a plane ride between Mahe and Praslin and boat between Praslin and La Digue.

We're currently looking at Yarrabee Studio on Mahe and The Islanders and Le Duc on Praslin.

Ah...

Mission control

2007-04-23T19:49:00.000+02:00

The harddrive on my iMac is somewhat faulty, so I'm gonna give it one last try by reformatting it and reinstall everything... Sucks!

SKI: try {best_practice;} catch(e) {}

2007-04-23T15:39:00.000+02:00

I'm about to finish the xhtml for the new SKI corporate website. It has been my intention from the very beginning to use strict xhtml and layout the site using nothing but css. It's a tough job when you're not as good as Eric Meyer.

Friday

2007-02-02T15:25:00.000+01:00

It's Friday and we've just celebrated a collegue's birthday. It's not gonna be late today though...

Visiting SAS hangar @ EKCH

2007-01-31T11:54:00.000+01:00

Yesterday Kristian and I was on a 2 hour visit to SAS hangars in Copenhagen airport (CPH). And boy planes are cool! Very cool indeed! The bigger the better.

Besides crawling (walking actually) around in the tech-compartment below the cockpit in an Airbus 340, we had the opportunity to see the cockpit itself - fully illuminated :)

The image above shows the glass cockpit of LN-RKG - an Airbus 340 SAS uses for long-haul flights (USA and Asia).

I wanna go again...

Beauty

2007-01-23T08:31:00.000+01:00

There's something special about a crisp frosty morning. I love the light. Kinda ski-holiday-mood-ish. Right?

Bruce Springsteen

2006-10-28T19:45:00.000+02:00

Waiting for the concert to begin. I'm in Parken in Copenhagen to see Bruce Springsteen perform with the Seegers Sessions Band. The music is much different than what he usually do, so I'm looking forward to it!

A&F

2006-08-31T12:44:00.000+02:00

I just couldn't resist it. Got a pair of boxers, a polo shirt and a knit. Plus a t-shirt for my brother.

Beautiful evening

2006-07-27T21:34:00.000+02:00

Still in Nyhavn and it's just fantastic!

Nyhavn

2006-07-27T20:59:00.000+02:00

Nyhavn is so nice when it's hot and the weather is nice. Me and 4 collegues are out for dinner on the restaurant boat called 'Liva'.

Blasphemy

2006-07-21T10:45:00.000+02:00

Getting worse!

2006-07-20T18:27:00.000+02:00

Phew...

It's hot outside!

2006-07-20T17:40:00.000+02:00

The thermometer in the car reads 29.5C. That's hot enough for me. I'm on my way home to fire up the grill :)

The new Hermés on Strøget

2006-07-18T16:41:00.000+02:00

For those of you that don't know, Strøget is the longest pedestrian shopping street in the world. And Hermes just moved their shop 500 feet down the street. With my salary though, I'm not gonna be a frequent visitor.

Boys toys

2006-07-15T15:14:00.000+02:00

While in Nuremberg we came across a electronics megastore called 'Conrad'. My boss went totally crazy in there. 3 RC planes, an RC helicopter, an RC truck, a radio and a portable LCD TV! The heli is broke already - we flew it in the office yesterday, but the 2 large planes we bought are to big to fly indoors. I'm gonna fly it in a field in a moment :)

Having a beer and a schnitzel

2006-07-13T15:40:00.000+02:00

The convention we were at was not that exiting, so we left quite early. It's a one-and-a-half hour drive from Nuremberg to Munich, so we took off to get some sun and a beer.

London Gatwick approach

2006-07-12T10:36:00.000+02:00

I'm on my way to London for a meeting. Tonight I'll continue to Nurnberg in Germany for a convention on marketing.

Giraffe in the sunset

2006-07-10T20:41:00.000+02:00

A toy giraffe I found in a parking lot in front of Osborne Clarke in Copenhagen.

Wild boar BBQ

2006-07-07T20:58:00.000+02:00

My girlfriend, dad, his vife and I are barbequeing wild boar. The wine was good too! SO nice to be in Hornbæk in the summer, when the weather is hot.
