samuel l. jackson / day two

After I wrote my entry for yesterday, we couldn't decide what to do last night. So, we did what one does in America...go to the movies. We saw Django Unchained (in English with Danish subtitles). The most interesting thing was the theater itself. It was huge. Like going to see a concert at the Tower Theater in Philly. It sat 1,102 people! We even had assigned seats. The movie was pretty good- typical Tarantino but funny as hell even with the over-the-top gore. Samuel L. Jackson once again is a total WIN. Ah, you were wondering why this entry was called Samuel L. Jackson, weren't you? After the movie, we visited Jailhouse CPH, a gay bar with a prison theme. The idea was to stop in for a quick Carlsberg (fresh from Copenhagen) beer and leave, but once we told the bartender we had just moved to the city, the Jagermeister shot came and so did another beer. Here's a little photo from the adventure there:

Today, we explored Frederiksburg, the neighborhood where we will be living for a few months before finding our permanent apartment. We checked out a few music shops, bike stores, and potential gyms. We also passed about 15 places where you can get your haircut. I guess that answered my question about where to head for a trim! We also stopped in a grocery store (to see how hard it's going to be to find what we need). Spoiler alert- it's going to be a pain in the ass to get used to. The reality is that shopping for food isn't a one-stop thing. You go to many different places when you're Danish. You go to place A for bread, place B for fruits/vegetables, place C for this, place D for that. Not like running to Superfresh or Shoprite to stock your house up. And here's a little discovery from the grocery store- gay cheerios??

Finally, we ended the night with another flick- Argo, which we had been wanting to see while in America but just didn't have the time. As the Golden Globes so obviously demonstrated, it was a fantastic movie. Fun fact: it's called Operation Argo here. So that was day two. In closing, here are some other things we discovered today.

What "The Help" is known as here...lol.

I miss PJ like crazy, but maybe I should be glad I didn't bring her here?
