Each August, something unusual happens on the quiet Åland Islands: a geodesic dome in the middle of the forest becomes a portal. For two days, the Kokong Festival transforms the Dome at Stallhagen into a living instrument, home to ambient drift, off-grid techno, experimental electronics, and the kind of late-night moments that only occur when sound, light, and space align perfectly. Now in its fourth edition, Kokong has outgrown its status as a local curiosity. It's a full-bodied experience, complete with live sets, spatial sound design, visual installations, movement performances, and workshops, crafted by Kulturföreningen Ström, the nonprofit organization that has built Åland's most refined sound system and a wider platform for electronic and electroacoustic arts. This year's edition (August 1 to 2) will feature around thirty acts in total, mixing top-tier Nordic talent with handpicked international guests, all performing just a few feet from the crowd. “This summer's edition will be the biggest yet,” says Johan Grönlund, Chair of Kulturföreningen Ström. “With more international acts, a handcrafted high-end sound system, and greater investments in the visual experience.” Among the headliners are Icelandic dub techno veteran Exos, Swedish modular explorer Andreas Tilliander, and Norwegian legend Mental Overdrive, joined by artists from Austria, the Nordics, and a strong showing of Åland's own community of producers, DJs, and tinkerers. But Kokong's ethos extends well beyond the stage. Free hands-on workshops with synth makers give festival-goers and local youth a chance to build, tweak, and discover. A performance by the Urgrund collective will blend movement, sound, and storytelling into a cohesive experience that defies easy categorization. Kokong moves at its own pace, quietly growing into one of the Nordic region's most thoughtfully curated electronic festivals. As part of this feature, we're thrilled to share an exclusive preview from the upcoming KOKONG Festival Vol.1 Sampler, a compilation capturing the spirit of the festival through sound. The track is a collaboration between Swedish electronic mainstay Andreas Tilliander and Croatian-Swedish jazz innovator Goran Kajfeš. Built on a steady, hypnotic groove, the piece lets Tilliander's textured synth work stretch out like smoke, while Kajfeš's trumpet drifts in and out like a distant signal. It's deep, psychedelic, and quietly ecstatic, exactly the kind of alchemy that feels right at home under the Dome's glimmering ceiling. https://www.kokong.ax https://www.instagram.com/kokongfestival/ https://soundcloud.com/tilliander https://www.instagram.com/tilliander/ Write up by @gilleswasseraman Follow us on social media: https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayed https://linktr.ee/delayed https://www.delayed.nyc https://www.facebook.com/itsdelayed https://www.instagram.com/_____delayed https://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed Contact us: info@delayed.nyc

Tiyi lives in North Michigan where she is the Mayor of her town! She has Irish, Creole and Nordic ancestry and can trace her lineage back to Haiti in 1702. Her family's story is fascinating. Tiyi starts off by telling us about her Great-Grandmother who met a leprechaun in Cork, Ireland and shows us the resulting enchanted shillelagh that has been passed down her family. We hear also about her grandfather's Hoodoo practices and the wisdom he passed down to her. Being a sensitive soul and clearly bearing the generations of practice of sensitive and honourable spiritual contact, Tiyi recalls hearing ghosts and voices as a child. On occasion she would encounter what she describes as 'The Slinky Lady' and one of her stories details flying out-of-body experience where she felt herself as part of the landscape. Tiyi works with forest spirits and shares a life-changing experience in a woodland which took place at a very difficult time in her life. During this wondrous encounter, she received a blessing from the forest. On another occasion she perceived 'The Gate Keeper' in the forest, from which she produced the painting that is shared in the episode. We hear about the 'talking tree' that her grandchildren reported, and we end with a series of mind bogging photos that could potentially indicate a Sasquatch encounter! It was a great honour to speak with Tiyi and I'm very grateful for all she shared about her life and experiences, so rich with meaning. Here is the beautiful blessing that she provided: "Spirit of this sacred place, Grant your blessing, grant your grace, Keep me safe in night and day, Hold me ever in your sway, Spirit of Water earth and Green Grant me sight for things unseen" Contact Tiyi via her website and be sure to subscribe to her YouTube channel. https://youtube.com/@spookymstiyi?si=eer9ZYefAiicPRb6 https://spookymstiyi.com/https://youtube.com/@spookymstiyi?si=eer9ZYefAiicPRb6 https://spookymstiyi.com/ ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY GROUP ⭐️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like minded folks, access to the Discord channels and joining events with other members, join us at: / membership S U P P O R T If you'd prefer to support the Modern Fairy Sightings with a one off donation, you can ‘buy me a coffee' and I'd be very grateful

In 1957, before UFO abductions became headline news, Reinhold Schmidt, a grain buyer from Nebraska, claimed he was taken aboard a glowing, oval-shaped craft outside his hometown. His car stalled, and he encountered tall, human-like beings who spoke fluent German and invited him into their ship. For thirty minutes, he saw an otherworldly interior and heard their cryptic purpose: observing humanity. In this episode of Brief Encounters, we dive into Schmidt's vivid, unwavering account, the wave of 1957 UFO sightings, and why his story, though overshadowed, remains a cornerstone of UFO lore. Was it a hoax, a hallucination, or a glimpse into the unknown? Join host Nik as we explore this chilling tale.Brief Encounters is a tightly produced, narrative podcast that dives headfirst into the world of UFO sightings, the paranormal, cryptids, myths, and unexplained legends. From ancient sky wars to modern close encounters, each episode takes listeners on a journey through some of the most mysterious and compelling cases in human history. Whether it's a well-documented military sighting or an eerie village legend whispered across generations, Brief Encounters delivers each story with atmosphere, depth, and cinematic storytelling. Episodes are short and binge-worthy perfect for curious minds on the go. In just 5 to 10 minutes, listeners are pulled into carefully researched accounts that blend historical context, eyewitness testimony, and chilling details. The series moves between eras and continents, uncovering not only the famous cases you've heard of, but also the forgotten incidents that deserve a closer look. Each story is treated with respect, skepticism, and wonder offering both seasoned enthusiasts and casual listeners something fresh to consider. Whether it's a 15th-century sky battle over Europe, a cryptid sighting in a remote forest, or a modern-day abduction report from rural America, Brief Encounters is your guide through the shadows of our world and the stories that refuse to be explained.UFO Chronicles Podcast can be found on all podcast players and on the website: https://ufochroniclespodcast.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ufo-chronicles-podcast--3395068/support.

Det er lett å snakke om sirkulærøkonomi, men vanskelig å få til i praksis. Så vi tar en prat med Camilla Gramstad, bærekraftssjef i Elkjøp Nordic, om arbeidet hun har ledet med sirkulærøkonomi for elektronikkgiganten Elkjøp. Vi trekker linjene til tiden da hun skiftet jobb fra Virke til Elkjøp, akkurat etter at de hadde fått bærekraftskritikk for "Green Friday"-kampanjen. Camilla forteller om konseptet "Destinasjon reparasjon" og arbeidet med å få til mer reparasjonstjenester, og Sveinung forteller om da han havnet i trøbbel med en kaffemaskin. Vi snakker om KPIer for sirkularitet og hvordan få med seg andre ledere i virksomheten på et sirkulært skifte. Vi snakker om ufarliggjøring av bærekraft, rollen til bærekraftssjefen for å drive sirkulærøkonomi og avhengigheten av andre i virksomheten. Vi snakker kremmerånd og en ryggsekk full av muslibarer, testing og eksperimentering for sirkularitet og Camilla får oss til å snakke om Etsy & Winstons "From green to gold". Lars Jacob trekker en barneskoleparallell med hans søster i sentrum, hvilket leder oss inn i en prat om da Camilla og Lars Jacob satt i Etikkinformasjonsutvalget sammen, som utviklet Åpenhetsloven. Camilla forteller om arbeidet med å etterleve "sin egen" lov, og mener loven funker noenlunde etter hensikten. Lars Jacob er usikker på om Elkjøp selger tidsmaskiner, vi snakker om nettverk for bærekraft, vi drar til Kongsvinger, får høre om reparatører, trekker en bilbutikkparallell og havner sågar på motorveien. Mye sirkulær prat, joda, men masse sirkulær handling også! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The rare Dark Bordered Beauty moth is found in only two sites in Scotland and one in England. Mark joins Dark Bordered Beauty Moth Champion Pete Moore at RSPB Insh Marshes nature reserve to find out more about attempts to reintroduce the moth to other areas in Scotland. Dark Bordered Beauty moths in Scotland are reliant on aspen suckers - shoots that sprout from the roots of an aspen tree, acting as a form of vegetative reproduction. Mark catches up with Conservation Manager Shaila Rao at Mar Lodge Estate in the Cairngorms to discover how the team are restoring aspen in the area. Rachel is in Dornoch to meet a group of women training for the traditional heavy events at the Highland Games. Mark and Rachel have a wander with David Coid and local historian Alasdair Malcolm on the coast of Prestwick, Ayrshire to explore a group of Grade-A listed houses built in the 1700s for the salt boiling industry. Phil Sime heads to a Creative Summer School with Cairngorms Connect to discover how the project helps local school children to explore art and creativity through different landscapes, habitats and species. Ben Saunders, Senior Marine Archaeologist at Wessex Archaeology, returns to the programme to update the team on exciting new information on the identity of the shipwreck found on Sanday, Orkney last year. Rachel meets Andrew Bateman who runs hiking tours in the Cairngorms with the comfort of a heated Nordic tipi at night. Andrew's highland ponies join the trek to carry the camping equipment. Mark and Rachel have a gander around Girvan as they continue to explore the Whithorn Way pilgrimage.

Yet while such characters define the Viking Age today, they were in the minority. This is the history of the other people who inhabited the medieval Nordic world-not only Norway, Denmark and Sweden, but also Iceland, Greenland, parts of the British Isles, Continental Europe and Russia- a history of a Viking Age filled with real people of different ages, genders and ethnicities, as told through the traces that they left behind, from hairstyles to place names, love-notes to gravestones. It's also a history of humans on an extraordinarily global stage, spanning the centuries from the edge of the North American continent to the Russian steppes, from the Arctic wastelands to the Byzantine Empire and the Islamic Caliphate.

The Good News That Media Doesn't Tell You Before diving into the political chaos, we start with hope: 3D-printed lung tissue that could cure COPD and asthma, revolutionary IVF techniques saving babies from mitochondrial diseases, and breakthrough infant heart transplant procedures expanding donor pools by 20%. Sometimes the best news is the news that reminds us human ingenuity is solving problems we thought impossible. Congressional Chaos & Crypto Drama The Senate passes Trump's $9 billion spending cuts in a nail-biter 51-48 vote, targeting foreign aid and public broadcasting. But the real drama? House Republicans initially blocked crypto bills during "Crypto Week" until Trump personally called holdouts to the Oval Office. We break down the GENIUS Act for stablecoin regulation, Bitcoin hitting $123K, and why regulating an industry you're profiting from might be problematic. The Musk vs. Trump Epstein Files Showdown Elon Musk has gone full chaos mode against Trump over Jeffrey Epstein files, even announcing an "America Party" to prioritize their release. We explore how this billionaire Twitter beef is creating genuine fractures in the MAGA movement and potentially costing Republicans seats in 2026. Immigration Crackdown Reality Check ICE now has access to 79 million Medicaid enrollees' personal data for deportation efforts. We examine the surge in arrests (47% without criminal charges), violent California cannabis farm raids, and the controversial "Alligator Alcatraz" detention center that Democrats and Republicans describe completely differently. International Military Escalation Trump's "Operation Midnight Hammer" strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, his complete flip on Russia policy with 100% tariff threats, and renewed violence in Syria. Plus, the ongoing Gaza humanitarian crisis and why a 20-year-old American was allegedly killed by Israeli settlers in the West Bank. Research on a Dime: What Is Socialism Actually? We break down the most misunderstood political term in America. Spoiler alert: Those "socialist" Nordic countries? Not actually socialist. Denmark's PM had to literally tell Americans to stop calling them that. We explore real socialism's pros and cons, why Americans already live with tons of "socialist" policies, and what NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani's democratic socialism experiment might mean for American politics. Domestic Policy Pandemonium Trump freezes $6 billion in education grants, threatens to strip citizenship from political opponents (spoiler: he legally can't), and escalates tariffs on 100+ countries while inflation ticks upward. We also cover the Texas flooding tragedy, church shooting in Kentucky, and why your medical debt might stay on your credit report after all. The Numbers That Matter Bitcoin: $123,165 all-time high ICE arrests: 930 daily (triple the original target) Immigration detention: 60,000 people (20,000 over Congressional funding) Texas flooding: 80+ dead, 41 still missing Gaza casualties: 57,000+ Palestinians killed since October 7, 2023 Purple Political Breakdown cuts through partisan noise to deliver nuanced analysis of the week's biggest political stories.

Today Razib talks to David  Gress, a Danish historian. The son of an American literary scholar and a Danish writer, he grew up in Denmark, read Classics at Cambridge, and then earned a Ph.D. in medieval history from Bryn Mawr College in the US in 1981. During a fellowship form 1982-1992 at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, he published on Cold‑War strategy, German political culture, and Nordic security. He has been a visiting fellow and lecturer at Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge, fellow at the Danish Institute of International Affairs, an assistant professor of Classics at Aarhus University, and professor of the history of civilization at Boston University. He co‑directed the Center for the Study of America and the West at the Foreign Policy Research Institute in Philadelphia and remains a senior fellow of the Danish free‑market think tank CEPOS while writing a regular column for Jyllands‑Posten. His breakthrough book, From Plato to NATO: The Idea of the West and Its Opponents (1998), argues that Western success sprang from a hard‑edged fusion of Roman order, Germanic liberty, Christian morality, and Smithian economics, rather than being a single disgraceful arc from Greco‑Roman‐paganism to secular Enlightenment that bypassed the Middle Ages. Razib asks Gress how he would have written Plato to NATO today, more than 25 years later, and he says he would have emphasized Christianity's role in creating a unified Western culture out of Greco-Roman and Germanic diversity more. Gress also reiterates that he does not deny the Greek foundation of Western Civilization, but rather, his work was a corrective to a very thin and excessively motivated and partisan narrative that stripped out vast periods of European history. They also discuss Gress' own own peculiar identity, the son of an American, born to a Danish mother, raised in Denmark who converted to Catholicism as an adult, and how that all fits into a broader European identity. They also discuss the impact of mass immigration on the national identities of Europe in the last generation, and Gress' opinions as to the European future. Razib also asks Gress about the role that evolutionary ideas may have in shaping human history, and how his own views may have changed since From Plato to NATO. They also discuss when it is plausible to say that the West was a coherent idea, and whether the Protestant Reformation was the beginning of the end for the unitary civilization that was Latin Christendom.

Erica Amoreena recalls recalls having telekinetic abilities at a very early age and would regularly levitate objects. She recalls her first abduction experiences involving Gray extraterrestrials and human military forces from the age of 1½ due to her starseed background and genetic qualities that were being tracked.Amoreena describes how over the succeeding years, she and her younger sister were traumatized in MILABs, and manipulated into believing their Gray abductors were the only ones they could trust. Amoreena says that she was conditioned to believe her parents had let her down and her younger sister turned against her ending their close friendship.Amoreena recalls being taken to an underground military facility where captured human-looking ‘Nordic' extraterrestrials were kept imprisoned. She says the Grays and Draconian extraterrestrials used her to trick the captive Nordics to share information about themselves and their civilizations, and to finally brutally kill them in front of her while blaming her for their death.Amoreena says that she was regularly taken at night and used to travel through portals that the Grays, Draconians, and human military forces, including the German Dark Fleet would use in their dark projects. She describes sexual abuse at the hands of human military forces that was part of the trauma inflicted upon her.Amoreena describes how her journey to freedom began with a failed suicide attempt where she finally met her star family, who revealed her true life mission as a Galactic Envoy. She describes remembering that she had volunteered for her difficult human life in order to learn about everything the Dark Forces were using to manipulate humanity, and to help in the liberation of Earth to prevent a future galactic tyranny.Erica Amoreena's book is Girl, Stolen: A Collection of Memories (2024)Her website is: EricaAmoreena.comJoin Dr. Salla on Patreon for Early Releases, Webinar Perks and More.Visit https://Patreon.com/MichaelSalla/

Laurent had the pleasure and privilege of sitting down with Markus Rauroma, CEO of Fortum, during the Eurelectric “Power Play” conference in Brussels this June.  Fortum, the Finnish energy company also active in Sweden and Poland, finds itself right on the front line when it comes to tensions with Russia—not exactly your average utility boardroom drama.   The conversation kicks off with Markus's recent election as President of Eurelectric, taking over from none other than Leo “the Great” Birnbaum, CEO of E.ON.We talk about the challenges Markus has faced so far, including how Fortum managed to steer through the stormy waters of the Ukraine war, and what's ahead for the industry. Spoiler: it's not all doom and gloom—there's strategy, resilience, and some surprisingly good teamwork. Markus rolls out Eurelectric's Manifesto centred on customers, security of supply and digitisation (AI).  Markus introduces his vice-presidential duo: Georgios Stassis (CEO of PPC) and Catherine MacGregor (CEO of Engie). According to him, it's a well-balanced trio—think energy world's version of the Avengers, but with spreadsheets and grid stability. He also gives kudos to Kristian Ruby, Secretary General of Eurelectric, and the Brussels team for their stellar behind-the-scenes work.The chat then shifts to the Baltics, one of the rare places in Europe where electricity demand is actually growing. Fortum's been ahead of the game there too: Markus reveals they now have over 1.3 GW of capacity lined up and ready to power new datacenters—because TikTok videos don't host themselves.  Of course, we couldn't ignore the constant cyber-attacks and sabotage attempts coming from Russia. Markus shares how Fortum has learned to deal with them—let's just say they don't flinch easily anymore.  And finally, a public mea culpa: Laurent repeatedly referred to Finland as part of Scandinavia. A common slip-up. For the record: Finland is next to Scandinavia, but it's not in it. The Finns are Nordic, not Scandinavian—but much like their neighbours to the west, they handled the mix-up with trademark cool. No sauna ban issued.  We thank Kristian Ruby and all the Eurelectric team for organising this recording and putting together such a great summit.

General Sir Patrick Sanders has a stark warning: Britain must prepare for war with Russia within five years and start building bunkers and better air defences.Speaking exclusively to our Defence Editor Danielle Sheridan, the former head of the British army points to the Nordic countries and says we need to start taking a leaf out of their book.He also discusses why an Iron Dome couldn't work in the UK, his thoughts on the recent Israel-Iran war, and why he didn't encourage his son to join the army.General Sanders stood down as head of the British army last summer. The former rifleman had been tipped to be the next Chief of the Defence Staff but fell out of favour with the Government for being too outspoken about the extent of troop cuts.Our defence editor Danielle interviewed him in his garden at his home in rural Wiltshire, with his blonde Labrador Fargo by his side.You can read her write-up and see some pretty extraordinary photos of General Sanders here: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/07/11/britain-must-prepare-for-war-with-russia-next-five-years/https://linktr.ee/BattleLinesContact us with feedback or ideas:battlelines@telegraph.co.uk @venetiarainey@RolandOliphant Hosted on Acast.

JP, a retired US Army soldier, recently traveled to Eglin AFB, which served as the staging area for travel to a nearby facility via several buses. JP was accompanied by approximately 20 Air Force personnel and eight Nordic extraterrestrials. Once they arrived at the facility, they were seated in several rows in a large room and listened to a briefing by an Air Force officer.JP and the others were told that the Atlantic Space Ark had risen from the ocean floor and was now hovering in the atmosphere over the mid-Atlantic. The ark was under the control of the Nordics, who were being assisted by personnel from different countries that included Russia, China, and the USA. JP was told the Ark began to rise when it received a signal from the Antarctica Space Ark, and both arks appeared to be responding to the arrival of a new interstellar object, 31/Atlas.JP was told that it was uncertain how the Deep State would react to these developments, and that there is a possibility that it will play its final card of a false flag alien event. JP also shared more about the Pacific Space Ark and the fate of the Deep State operatives who were able to gain access in an unsuccessful attempt to control it.For  more JP Updates visit: https://exopolitics.org/jp-articles-photos-videos/Join Dr. Salla on Patreon for Early Releases, Webinar Perks and More.Visit https://Patreon.com/MichaelSalla/

In this live episode of Newsroom Robots, host Nikita Roy moderates a panel discussion recorded at the Nordic AI and Media Summit in Copenhagen. The conversation features Gard Steiro (Editor-in-Chief and CEO of VG in Norway), Fabian Heckenberger (Managing Editor and Senior Editor for AI at Süddeutsche Zeitung in Germany), and Naja Nielsen (Media Director at SVT in Sweden and former Digital Director at BBC News).They discuss how news organizations are approaching the complexities of integrating AI into editorial workflows, organizational strategy, and audience experiences. The conversation focuses on the tensions, trade-offs, and open questions that newsroom leaders are wrestling with. Key topics include:How AI is shifting from isolated projects to infrastructure across newsroom operations, and the implications for leadership and cross-functional teams.Why VG uses a fixed one-year runway model to evaluate AI experiments, and what happens when projects don't deliver measurable outcomes.The role of transparency and relevance in building trust with audiences, particularly for younger and emerging user groups.SVT's approach to organizational learning, including how leadership can empower experimentation without centralizing all decision-making.What interdisciplinary teams look like in practice—drawing on SZ's experience embedding editorial staff into product and tech teams.Challenges with prioritization: choosing between maintaining legacy systems, launching new GenAI tools, or refining user experience.Why personalization can't rely on a human-in-the-loop model, and how AI agents may soon take on quality assurance roles within content pipelines.Emerging revenue considerations: from small-scale funding streams and philanthropic support to fundamental questions about what people are actually willing to pay for.The episode wraps with a candid exchange about whether the article format has outlived its usefulness in an era of personalized, multimodal news delivery and what that means for the future of storytelling and journalistic impact.Subscribe to the Newsroom Robots newsletter for more insights and updates from host Nikita Roy.

July is vacation month in Denmark, and it's ironic that many Danes go elsewhere on vacation at just this time of year, when you have the best chance of good weather in Denmark. And I do mean chance – there is never any guarantee. Some Danes go abroad, driving vacations to Southern Europe are popular. There's a well-known cycle in which the summer weather is good one year, so everyone plans a vacation in Denmark the following year, and then the weather is awful, so everyone plans a foreign vacation the next year, and then the weather is good, and so on. You can surf in Denmark Staying in Denmark, even if you don't own one of the famous Danish summer houses, can be a great choice. There's a surprising amount of nature to experience in this small, flat, country that isn't as densely populated as the UK, or the Netherlands, or even Germany. You can surf in Denmark, along the windy west coast, and when you're done explore the ever changing sand dunes. Maybe visit the little lighthouse that is slowly being swallowed up by the sand. Hike through ancient forests in Denmark In Denmark you can hike through ancient forests, and even sleep there in some of the public forest shelters. Most of the forest shelters are big wooden boxes with one side entirely open, but with a roof to protect you from the rain. You can walk through beautiful meadows filled with wildflowers and butterflies. Watch whales along the coastline. Tramp through marshes and see red foxes and white-tailed eagles. Visit open grasslands with a few wild horses. Chalk cliffs and fossil hunting in Denmark You can enjoy almost any type of Nordic landscape except mountains, because Denmark doesn't really have any. It's tallest peak, Møllehøj, is 1/3 the height of the Empire State Building. But if you insist on rocky peaks, you can visit some lovely chalk cliffs in Denmark and try fossil hunting in the sand. And what ties them all together is the Marguerite Route, or Daisy Route, that runs all over Denmark. The Daisy Route isn't a straight line from one place to another, like Route 66 in the US or the Trans-Siberian express. It's 4200 kilometers, or 2600 miles, that looks like a plate of spaghetti, with lots of curves and twists. It takes you on back roads where you can see the quiet side of Denmark. It never doubles back on itself and, with one significant exception – the Big Belt Bridge between Zealand and Fyn – it involves no highways. Margueritruten Route or the Daisy Route The Daisy Route is named after the former queen, Margrethe, who inaugurated it on her 50th birthday in 1991. Her nickname is Daisy. And the signs you will follow on the Daisy Route are brown squares with white daisies. The Daisy Route is a great way to enjoy Danish nature, although, unfortunately, it works best with a car. Bikes in the city, cars in the countryside One of Denmark's little secrets is that despite all the tourism pictures of healthy Danes riding bicycles, bicycle infrastructure is best in the big cities. Many roads in the countryside don't have a bike lane, and you probably don't want to be on a lonely country road on your bike with a cement mixer truck behind you. Outside of those big cities, most Danes do own cars – and there are more cars in Denmark every year, even though they're very expensive and parking enforcement is draconian. From the window of my home in Copenhagen, I watch cars being hit with parking fines every single weekday. Denmark's founding document, the Jelling Stone What about mass transit? Can you enjoy the Daisy Route using trains and buses? You can indeed, if you want to see some of the major cultural spots on the route. For example, the Jelling Stone, the giant carved stone that is Denmark's founding document, kind of its Magna Carta or Declaration of Independence. Put up by King Harold Bluetooth in the year 965, it marks Denmark's transition to the centralized monarchy it still has today. And yes, Bluetooth on your phone is named after him. The Jelling Stone is very easy to reach by train. Finding Fossils on Møns Klimt Or Kronborg Castle in Helsingør, also known as Elsinore in Shakespeare's play Hamlet. You can easily take public transport to the castle, where Hamlet lived in the play, and the guard Marcellus said “Something is Rotten in Denmark.” Although Shakespeare apparently never visited the castle himself, you can. It's a simple trip with train, bus, or even ferry from Sweden. But the some of the best stops on the Daisy Route in Denmark don't work well with mass transit. For example, Møns Klimt is a dramatic white chalk cliff on an island in southeast Denmark. You can walk along the beach finding prehistoric fossils during the day or go stargazing at night, because there's very little light pollution. Summer vacation chill in Denmark To get to Møns Klimt from my home in Copenhagen is a 90 minute car trip…or a 4-hour odyssey involving three trains, two buses, and a long walk. Or a 7-hour bike trip. It can be done without a car, but it may take away some of your vacation chill. And vacation chill is what July in Denmark is all about. Everything closes down Many companies in Denmark shut down for the last two weeks of July and sometimes the first week of August, restaurants and shops are closed, many church services are suspended. Even my local ice cream shop in Copenhagen closes down, although I'm sure the ones in tourist locations are open and very busy. You may get to enjoy this in glorious summer sunshine, and on a sunny day, there is no country as pretty as Denmark. Or you could experience it in cold, pelting rain – possibly on the same day. Danish summer weather has no guarantees.
