stammersballe badehotel ( seaside resort ) i stayed wit my daughter louise, below hints of how good it was, and it was good.
detail from the dinner, notice my room key, interesting !
breakfast setting, too bad, one can only eat so much, really not that much, so better choose wisely.
a lovely selection, again choose wisely.
a gem of a museum, bornholms kunstmuseum, i found a small group of good danish silver and jewelry, a must visit.

chimneys everywhere, looks like everybody has a little smoking business, nice.
a lovely smoke house.
a well deserved nap, after a real bornholm lunch, smoked herring, beer and a few small ones ( snaps )
everything so well kept, looks real good.
former smoking house, now a coffee cafe, changing indeed, still looks charming
worth a visit, danish artist's house oluf hoest.
i am relaxing in the wonderful garden at oluf hoest's house. extremely well kept, my daughter told me, there is a bathtub in the lady's room, that is something good to know.
former boots shop, great memories.
now, one hour sailing and right in front us is christiansoe, very exciting. 45 families live here permanently and of course a daily influx of tourists like us invade the tiny island, however, tough rules, only six rooms at the grocery store ( local inn ) and a couple of cells at the local prison, are converted to "hotel rooms", though the key is on the inside, nice feeling.
the local inn, 6 rooms only, we were lucky we made reservation long time ago, rooms very nice.
the inn. real charming, at 5 o'clock the restaurant open, and the locals and a couple of turists enter, beer and snaps will shortly be served.
fancy dinner at the dinning room, yes, the food was delicious.
street view, on main street.
a paradise for the birds.
very well kept streets, only a few streets though.
now, at the mainland seeland denmark, village inn near ringsted, meeting the locals, i guess a farmer and his wife, charming a big smile.
more locals at the village inn, such a great atmosphere, simply, one has to like it.
outside the inn.
in copenhagen, keeping an eye on the traffic and the beer
visit anne ammitzboel shop in copenhagen as well on display in her shop extraordinary design jewelry by nanne yes, anne and i took the time for lunch at sankt annae , one of the best lunch places in copenhagen, if not the best, great style and very much civilized.
lovely display at anne ammitzboel shop
visit anette kraen in her workshop
details from the work shop
more interesting display in the work shop
details, i like all the things in anette kraen's work shop
great nut cracker and funny chair, good to look at.
anette invited me for a typical danish lunch, i liked every bite, great arrangement
could not be more charming.
coffee and homemade danish apple cake with whipped cream, served in anette's work shop, it is quite easy to gain pounds visiting denmark.
