The Museum of Modern Glass Art, Cisternerne: May 21

Today, my friend Brian and I went to the Cisternerne in Frederiksberg.

We shared a limited edition of Somersby Cider, Blackberry flavor on the way over:


Cider in Denmark/Europe is alcoholic, but it still tastes like a soda. :) And something you can do in Copenhagen is drink alcohol of any kind while on the streets and not get in trouble for it. Ah legal drinking in public... another thing I will miss about Europe.

At first glance, the museum reminds me of the Paris Louvre, except the prisms are set atop of a park.


But underground, it is a cold and haunting atmosphere, a great contrast to Paris's Louvre. The floors are coated with a coat of water and you can hear people's voices echo.



Underground, it was both sculpture and stained glass art.


Afterwards, we just lay on the grass and chilled a bit.





We later met up with my friend Pablo and walked to Rosenbourg Castle and through the King's Gardens.



And the day was finished off at Paluden cafe for a good bye dinner for my friend, Shelley.
