Paris/London/Copenhagen

That was the most flying/walking/sightseeing I've ever done in a 10-day period, very exhausting. I probably can't even recall over half of all the buildings we went to see. Overall, though, I think it went pretty well considering how last-minute we planned the whole trip.

Paris [1.5 days]: the first day we just got there so we did all the tourist-y attractions, then the next day was our only full day actually in Paris. We managed to visit about 10 or so buildings, but unfortunately did not have much luck with LeCorbusier's stuff... It was also pretty hectic trying to make the most of that day though. Oh well. I'm probably going back after classes are done. Also of note: Paris is pretty smelly. For some reason I felt like Paris didn't live up to how great it seemed to be.

London [3.5 days]: London on the other hand, I have always heard it was just so cold and gloomy and rainy and overall depressing, but I guess we hit it on a good week because it was sunny the entire time. Being able to space out our sightseeing a bit more since we had more days here was a relief. It was also nice to be able to speak to native English speakers. A little weird actually because it's been such a long time. However, I think it was pretty much the least interesting architecture-wise. For cool architecture see ---vvv

Copenhagen (+Malmö) [3.5 days]: Copenhagen had a really nice atmosphere, sort of similar to Amsterdam/Holland with a good bit of the city being very modern (and clean). I just wish it wasn't so expensive there. I've never felt so poor. It was really cool to see a bunch of BIG projects, see their exhibit, and then actually be able to take a mini-tour of their studio. Thank you press lady with a semi-hangover. It was pretty funny that we took the train into Malmö and only stayed for a couple hours just to see the twisting torso building.
