This is a lovely marina scene in Denmark's second largest city, Arhus:

Arhus' central cathedral:
Oh yeah, by the way, I was in Denmark on Thursday and Friday last week.

Mountain Play
On June 1 we hiked up Mount Tam with a few new friends to watch The Wizard of Oz. It was a 7 mile hike up from our friend's parent's home in Mill Valley. Along the way we saw homes built on incredibly steep hillsides, sweeping vistas of the Pacific and even glimpses of downtown San Francisco.
When we reached the Western Arm of Mt Tam we arrived at the Mountain Play amphitheatre. The Wizard of Oz is a surprisingly good story. Olivia and I realized that the last time either one of us had watched the movie Pink Floyd was playing in the background...so we never got to hear "Toto too". This time, however, we heard "Toto too" and so much more. It was a lively performance with modern dancing black clad twirling tornadoes, jitterbugging flying monkeys and of course, our favorites: the straw man, the tin man and the lion.
