Why would anyone go there now?
The World Cup 2026 football games will be without foreign spectators.
The same for the 2028 Olympic Games.
FIFA and the Olympic Committee should reconsider.

Sounds like a perfect solution to me.
Do you have a heat pump too for heating and hot water?
I'm depending on electricity solely.
My total yearly energy consumption for my 95m2 home is 2.200 to 2.400 kWh
I take that you have a smart meter and a variable price contract with your electricity provider.
It's an effective tool to move consumption to when electricity is plentiful and cheap.
All Danish homes have smart meters and we know 24 ahead how prices will be.

The estimated value was set at above 100 millions, so Maren is now disappearing into the ground at night, only to appear again in the morning. 2/2

The city of Holstebro acquired this Sculpture by Giacometti for 210.000 Danish Crowns in 1965. Locals found this very expensive. But she grew on the locals
The local name was Maren on the wagon.
For years it was left outside 24/7/365 until someone told city officials that it's very precious. 1/2
Sorry for the double set of pictures. ๐

It's situated in the most beautiful place
If weather allows it walk back to town along the beach and take a turn or two at the infinite bridge.

Thanks to Storm Floris and the sunshine electricity prices are low in Denmark the whole day.
Time to charge the car and run the dishwasher and washing machine and vacuum the house.
Here the actual electricity prices in east and west Denmark.
Divide prices by 7,46 to get it in Euro.
It ain't going away, no it ain't going away....

Oh America.
What is happening to you?
Is this what freedom has come to.
Freedom from instead of freedom to.
Separated instead of together.

Oh no. So sorry to hear.
Hopefully Aarhus is restoring your mood.
Take a trip to visit the AROS art museum.
One of my favourite places.
The Moesgaard museum is definitely worth a visit too.

I love these sculptures of people know for their achievements.
The author of the Matador tv show that every Dane knows by heart had her sculptor too.
She had her sculptor while still alive.
Here with one of the main actors in the show
It's placed in Roskilde
You might find some inspiration here

I take it that TV2 lived up to your expectations. ๐

I understand it was brutal.
We're in the tail of the storm right now.
But Aarhus should be clear soon
You've chosen a wet period to visit.
A bit windy, but nothing compared to how northern parts Scotland was hit by Storm Floris.
Enjoy your stay my friend.
I sure is perfect condition for fungi.
But with Carl Johan we must wait a bit longer. ๐
When I started first grade in school in Odense in 1955, we celebrated that it was 150 years ago Hans Christian Andersen was born.
This year it's 150 years ago since he died, and we commemorate his life and influence on society and his wonderful stories.
July in Denmark was
1,2ยฐC warmer than latest climate normal.
15 hours less of sunshine
Much wetter. The 10th wettest months since 1874 when we started recording these things.
And we're off to a wet start of August, with already more rain the first 3 days than the March this year.
The stationary low pressure over Denmark has really been changing our perception of summer in the northern part of Europe. Lots of rain in some parts and very hot weather in Finland, Sweden and Norway.
Finally it's moving further east.
Here the drought index for Denmark
Vacation time in Denmark is coming to an end.
Many going back to work today after having taken 3 weeks of vacation.
School children go back to school again after 6 weeks of summer vacation this week.
Hopefully all fully recharged and ready
University students still have vacation until September.
Who would ever contemplate investing in the US if there is no reliable data?

Imagine if electric cars were here first, and someone said, let's make a car that runs on an explosive fluid.

Statistician in employment has been fired for telling the truth. Now being replaced by someone willing to manipulate data to please Trump.
Likewise I predict the firing of people in trade data report, in inflation reporting, in climate reporting.
Data from the US will be so unreliable and trust gone
Lying seems easy for him.
Repeating lies that are so easy for all to fact check.
Revengeful towards people who speaks in favour of the truth or stand up to him.
Or maybe in this fine program made by American two knowledgeable tourist visiting the Rosenborg Castle.

Knowing who's the owner of WaPo is, and the history of the Supreme Court , the choice is easy.
The people in America has lost the protection of the SC.
