We made a short notice booking to Copenhagen, Jayne had the first week in September booked off and we wanted to try and do a city break. Five nights hardly seemed enough but the short flight was ok. We flew over home heading east on a beautiful morning. I love flying over an area that I know and being able to see it from above. We had been warned that Copenhagen was expensive-it was! I hadn’t done any research before we set off but on the flight over, I read that taxis were expensive, so it was best to use the Metro from the airport, it isn’t far in to the city and the Metro was fairly easy to use. However! We should have caught the train, I read this whist we were sat on the Metro it has to be said! The nearest Metro stop, which I was frantically trying to work out, using my phone, travelling in and out of tunnels, turned out to be a 1.5 mile walk from our hotel, the rail station was .5. Never mind we were there to walk-subject to my lately diagnosed arthritic ankle, we just didn’t want to be towing suitcases over cobbled pavements at the same time.
We were staying in the Tivoli Hotel which was described as central, it is near Central Station but you wouldn’t describe it as central to the city. Our room wasn’t ready but we could upgrade for a modest amount plus we realised it would be a good idea to include breakfast in the upgrade deal. A good move as it turned out. Our room overlooked the train lines-all twelve of them!! We could already hear train brakes squealing along with the thump thump of steel wheels rolling over points and joints. It’s true to say that Central Station is a 24/7 operation. The overnight noise didn’t bother Jayne but I could hear it all night.
We dumped our stuff and I loaded up with the backpack and camera and we were straight out there. Copenhagen is a relatively small city but there is a lot to see. We were soon finding out that it has an extensive network of canals and bridges and these are a major feature of life in the city. Pan flat, the cyclist rules, There appeared to be twice as many bikes as residents, with countless thousands propped up everywhere you went. Where ever you looked there was silent conveyor of sit up and beg cycles being ridden in all directions. You soon got used to looking over your shoulder before making a move. The vast majority of bikes are left unlocked and almost no one wears a helmet ( I’m a no helmet man, much to the annoyance of the helmet zealots). Copenhagen is reputedly the happiest place in the world and it certainly came across as friendly and relaxed. It is, though, one of the most expensive cities in the world and two burgers and two small glasses of wine at Nyhavn cost us £50. Comically, there were four people, local to us, shouting out Jayne’s name, they had seen us going past and we had a laugh about the prices, They were sat drinking beer at £8.50 a pint. Despite the expense, the place was packed with people parting with their money. Wages are very high locally, as are the taxes. The high wages and high costs must feed each other in an upward spiral I would have thought.
Unfortunately the cost of entering buildings to go up towers etc. for a higher view of the city was also very expensive (to us). The tower at Christiansborg Palace is free but restricted by the lift system and you don’t get to the top, it does also open later than the others so you have a chance of seeing sunset over the city. Unfortunately the lifts were out of order on one of our best weather days. We did get to go up the day after but it was dull and I wasn’t overly impressed. The spiral tower across in Christiana, The Church of Our Saviour, was far more impressive. We climbed the tower here just after it opened on a stunning morning and the views are fantastic. There will be incredible bottlenecks when it’s busy though on the corkscrew stairs that get progressively narrower towards the top. Some people hog it to take endless selfies at the top and it is extremely tight up there, you can’t move up until they come down.
As usual, we tried to get to some out of the way places, with only five days and mixed weather though we had enough mainstream destinations to see. We had a day of heavy rain so we went back to the rail station which was a good indoor (and free!) destination, and made umbrellas and the rain the focal point of that days photos. The entire Danish navy seemed to be at anchor, we just missed an open day on one ship. Some I could photograph, others were guarded and had restrictions, I got the evil eye from a couple of guards as the spotted the big Canon in my hand. I can’t imagine that they could police the Japanese and stop them from getting their photos and selfies though. I always act very openly with the camera and if people look at me suspiciously I smile and give them the thumbs up. In a rail station I usually ask the police. In Central Station the police were in their station and I never saw one move out, it is covered by extensive CCTV but there were some very unpleasant people, drinking and watching for people being careless with their belongings. We were lucky to be in the station on Sunday as a tourist steam train arrived, it sat at the platform belching smoke and steam for fifteen minutes, it was also coming back in an hour so we had an expensive coffee and waited to see it again. There was big military event outside the Christiansborg Palace on Monday, with a parade through the city that came past just as we were in a good spot to view it. The area was full of soldiers wearing their medals. We haven’t discovered the reason, although someone suggested a passing out parade for new recruits. Maybe the ships were in port for this as well.
Tivoli Gardens is another big draw and we went in, again it was fairly expensive, it had been a stunning day and the biggest problem was contrast, with deep shadows and a bright blue sky. We stayed until dark, it opens late and is very colourful. We went on the world’s highest carousel and got flung around 260 odd feet in the air. Luckily, we also found a bar that served wine at ‘only’ £5.60 a glass so we sat and watched people have fun screaming and shrieking above us.
There are many buildings with copper domes, entire copper roofs, even modern buildings are often clad in either brass or copper to blend in with the ancient buildings around them. Like every city we have visited, tower cranes are in abundance. There is a lot of development going on and unfortunately a lot of it is around buildings that you would want to photograph. We walked 12 to 14 mile every day and took in most of the sights. We didn’t really do any interiors, only towers and the railway station. At the time of writing I haven’t looked at what I’ve got, I have around 3000 shots, some on the G1X which I used when it was raining heavily as it easy to put in a pocket. I have a lot less time for editing these days so it will be a long process I think. To save time I am going to create a list of generic tags that I can copy and paste to each upload – the time saving is enormous – so apologies to anyone who gets a photo of a canal when they wanted a steam train or vice versa.

Svamp, evt pensel.

DJ AND PRODUCER

BOOKING PARTNERSHIP FOR ITALY
David Tort is one of the most relevant Spanish artists taking part of the global electronic scene, a fact proven by his over half a hundred released productions, among which hits like "Changes", "7 Eleven, "Work It Out", "Lost in Acid", "Amazonia" and also remixes for David Guetta, Tïesto & Nelly Furtado, Bob Sinclar, Ultra Naté or even Spanish Pop Diva Marta Sánchez and the American Idol Blake Lewis. His music is included in the soundtrack of several MTV USA's reality shows, some television channels and may also be found in compilations by Ministry of Sound, Azuli, Yoshitoshi, Defected, Cream and others.
He first entered a recording studio on 1990, experimenting with EMB and Acid House, but it was not until 1998 that he published his first works. On 2004 he founded Overbooking Studio with Dj Ruff. During the 90s, he was resident DJ in real cult clubs at Barcelona, among which starrs Pacha Sitges, the first Pacha there was. He has spent 6 years of his career offering us his sessions every summer at L'Atlantida, a legendary club by the Mediterranian sea shore which belongs to the Amnesia Ibiza group. His international DJ career started in 2003, and he's been in dozens of countries, where he's been acclaimed by the audience thanks to his savoir faire at the turntables, making people dance for over two decades at clubs like Avalon (Los Angeles, USA), Pacha NY, Space (Miami), WMC (Miami), Amnesia (Ibiza), Sun Dance Music Festival (Godskitchen, Canadá) amongst others. His exclusive personal style, straight to the dancefloor, has taken him to be the first (and so far, the last too) Spanish DJ to mix at the Playboy Mansion in Beverly Hills.
His work has been recognized by both the critics and the audience, Proof of this are the many Deejamags Awards nominations each year which has received several awards, Best Remixer of the Year Award with "Work It Out" and Best Resident Deejay with "L'Atlantida Sitges" amongst others. On 2008, after working with the most important dance music labels, David decided to work with Vendetta Records in the creation of his own label, "The Mansion Recordings", a new project that also was granted a Deejaymags 2008 Best Label Award nomination. Tracks like his Remix for Gui Boratto "no Turning Back", "When I became a Punk" with Dj Ruff, or "Venture" by Swanky Tunes have sweeped through the dancefloors all over the world. And there's even more! We may follow his radio DJ proposal at his weekly radioshow "Rock Da House", a including new releases and the jewels of his case. "Rock Da House" is broadcasted in Spain by Loca FM, 246Live (Canada), LaX (Colombia) and other countries as Canada, Germany, Austria, Estonia and Russia.

The Booking Office at The Renaissance Hotel in St. Pancras is one of those places that I only realised was on my list of 'places I have to eat in, in London' once I'd actually been. I think I realised a few minutes in, staring up at its beautifully ornate high ceilings. Living inside the truly magnificent St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel (which only recently finished nothing less than a decade of renovations) the building was originally conceived by Sir George Gilbert Scott and opened as the Midland Grand in 1873. It really is palatial in both its interior and its exterior. It was originally built as a hotel for well heeled train travellers, and more than a century later, is doing pretty much the same thing. The attachment to St. Pancras Railway Station does give the place a kind of frenetic energy, and a few of the hotel rooms have amazing views over the inside of the station.
Anyhow, as you may have guessed, the Booking Office Bar (which is where we spent our ridiculous evening) is built on the site of the station's former booking office. It seems to have lost nothing of the original room's history and character - just look at it. On a foodie note, good news comes in the form of the bar/restaurant that now lives inside it - as a Marriott operation you're allowed to have some expectations when t comes to the food and these guys certainly deliver (though not, perhaps, at the level of insanity you may find at JW Steakhouse on Park Lane or Gillray's in County Hall. Food is, on the main part, rather British with a few modern European touches - think an all day menu with Fish Finger Sandwiches, Toad in the Hole, Shepardâs Pie, Black Angus Beef Burgers, etc. Keeping with the British theme, they also serve the traditional afternoon tea in the adjacent (and for some reason very fragrant) Hansom Lounge.
We were there partly for The Renaissance's 'punch ritual'. What I forgot to mention is that the other big theme here is the Victorian era (heck, they're halfway there with the decor). One way this plays out is in an array of (often gin based) punches and mixed drinks, many of which they dug up from old Victorian recipe books. Monday night's punch recipe/ritual was based on one served at the infamous Garrick club - I watched our photogenic, Italian barman pour an entire bottle of Sipsmith's London Dry into that thing. A mug (metal mug) of said punch is complimentary, but you've got to get up and try some (which apparently encourages diners to be a little more sociable, kinda the point of serving a punchâ¦like a party!). 2 bottles of wine and some punch later, we were given the goahead to explore the inside of the hotel further - check out the Grand Staircase. It is a very grand staircase. This place is worth a visit. A healthy/unhealthy dose of living history and delicious food/drink, all at the same time...

It’s true to say that Central Station is a 24/7 operation. The overnight noise didn’t bother Jayne but I could hear it all night.
We dumped our stuff and I loaded up with the backpack and camera and we were straight out there. Copenhagen is a relatively small city but there is a lot to see. We were soon finding out that it has an extensive network of canals and bridges and these are a major feature of life in the city. Pan flat, the cyclist rules, There appeared to be twice as many bikes as residents, with countless thousands propped up everywhere you went. Where ever you looked there was silent conveyor of sit up and beg cycles being ridden in all directions. You soon got used to looking over your shoulder before making a move. The vast majority of bikes are left unlocked and almost no one wears a helmet ( I’m a no helmet man, much to the annoyance of the helmet zealots). Copenhagen is reputedly the happiest place in the world and it certainly came across as friendly and relaxed. It is, though, one of the most expensive cities in the world and two burgers and two small glasses of wine at Nyhavn cost us £50. Comically, there were four people, local to us, shouting out Jayne’s name, they had seen us going past and we had a laugh about the prices, They were sat drinking beer at £8.50 a pint. Despite the expense, the place was packed with people parting with their money. Wages are very high locally, as are the taxes. The high wages and high costs must feed each other in an upward spiral I would have thought.
Unfortunately the cost of entering buildings to go up towers etc. for a higher view of the city was also very expensive (to us). The tower at Christiansborg Palace is free but restricted by the lift system and you don’t get to the top, it does also open later than the others so you have a chance of seeing sunset over the city. Unfortunately the lifts were out of order on one of our best weather days. We did get to go up the day after but it was dull and I wasn’t overly impressed. The spiral tower across in Christiana, The Church of Our Saviour, was far more impressive. We climbed the tower here just after it opened on a stunning morning and the views are fantastic. There will be incredible bottlenecks when it’s busy though on the corkscrew stairs that get progressively narrower towards the top. Some people hog it to take endless selfies at the top and it is extremely tight up there, you can’t move up until they come down.
As usual, we tried to get to some out of the way places, with only five days and mixed weather though we had enough mainstream destinations to see. We had a day of heavy rain so we went back to the rail station which was a good indoor (and free!) destination, and made umbrellas and the rain the focal point of that days photos. The entire Danish navy seemed to be at anchor, we just missed an open day on one ship. Some I could photograph, others were guarded and had restrictions, I got the evil eye from a couple of guards as the spotted the big Canon in my hand. I can’t imagine that they could police the Japanese and stop them from getting their photos and selfies though. I always act very openly with the camera and if people look at me suspiciously I smile and give them the thumbs up. In a rail station I usually ask the police. In Central Station the police were in their station and I never saw one move out, it is covered by extensive CCTV but there were some very unpleasant people, drinking and watching for people being careless with their belongings. We were lucky to be in the station on Sunday as a tourist steam train arrived, it sat at the platform belching smoke and steam for fifteen minutes, it was also coming back in an hour so we had an expensive coffee and waited to see it again. There was big military event outside the Christiansborg Palace on Monday, with a parade through the city that came past just as we were in a good spot to view it. The area was full of soldiers wearing their medals. We haven’t discovered the reason, although someone suggested a passing out parade for new recruits. Maybe the ships were in port for this as well.
Tivoli Gardens is another big draw and we went in, again it was fairly expensive, it had been a stunning day and the biggest problem was contrast, with deep shadows and a bright blue sky. We stayed until dark, it opens late and is very colourful. We went on the world’s highest carousel and got flung around 260 odd feet in the air. Luckily, we also found a bar that served wine at ‘only’ £5.60 a glass so we sat and watched people have fun screaming and shrieking above us.
There are many buildings with copper domes, entire copper roofs, even modern buildings are often clad in either brass or copper to blend in with the ancient buildings around them. Like every city we have visited, tower cranes are in abundance. There is a lot of development going on and unfortunately a lot of it is around buildings that you would want to photograph. We walked 12 to 14 mile every day and took in most of the sights. We didn’t really do any interiors, only towers and the railway station. At the time of writing I haven’t looked at what I’ve got, I have around 3000 shots, some on the G1X which I used when it was raining heavily as it easy to put in a pocket. I have a lot less time for editing these days so it will be a long process I think. To save time I am going to create a list of generic tags that I can copy and paste to each upload – the time saving is enormous – so apologies to anyone who gets a photo of a canal when they wanted a steam train or vice versa.

EL FANTASMA QUE TORTURÓ A TENNESSEE WILLIAMS
Nació el 26 de marzo de 1911 en Columbus (Mississippi). Pasó parte de su juventud en Saint Louis (Missouri). Trabajó de fogonero, limpiabotas, lavaplatos, mientras, escribía piezas dramáticas que eran representadas en pequeños teatros comunales. El trabajo del más famoso dramaturgo del siglo XX quedó marcado por la presencia de una hermana esquizofrénica y paranoica. El miedo a la locura, fue el fantasma que los acosó, pero no perturbó su genio creador. Quién no recuerda obras como “Un tranvía llamado Deseo”, “Una gata sobre un tejado de zinc caliente” o “La noche de la iguana”. Tennessee Williams murió de manera muy peculiar. Decidió suicidarse a los 71 años tras la muerte de su pareja, Frank Merlo. Para ello ingirió una gran cantidad de alcohol que iría seguida de la toma de barbitúricos para culminar el fatal desenlace. A la mañana siguiente fue hallado muerto, asfixiado por el pequeño tapón del bote de pastillas, que se había quedado atascado en su tráquea al abrirlo con la boca. En su ciudad de nacimiento, se recomienda no pasar por alto Jackson la “mejor ciudad de Mississippi”. Conocida como "La ciudad con alma", Jackson es la capital y la ciudad más grande de Mississippi. Ubicada en el cruce de las carreteras interestatales 55 y I-20, se puede acceder fácilmente en coche, avión, tren, autocar y Megabus desde Memphis y Nueva Orleans. Jackson, que fue elegida por la revista AAA Southern Traveler como la ciudad más atractiva de Mississippi, se destaca por su hermosa arquitectura, desde el magnífico edificio del Capitolio que data de 1903, hasta la modesta casa de Medgar Evers, asesinado por defender los derechos civiles. Los editores de Convention South Magazine también seleccionaron a Jackson entre las 10 mejores "ciudades con mentalidad ministerial" del sur. La vida en esta ciudad está llena de música: góspel, blues, rock, jazz, clásica y todo lo demás; nacida de una tradición impregnada de arte. ¿Quieres ver y experimentar el hogar del blues? Pasa por F. Jones Corner, donde la influencia del blues se derrama de las paredes en el histórico distrito de Farish Street; o Hal y Mal para "Blue Monday", donde puede encontrar la legendaria Dorothy Moore cantando "Misty Blue". En The Jackson Rhythm and Blues Festival, se reúnen más de 30 artistas en cinco escenarios en lo que se conoce como los terrenos rústicos de Mississippi Agriculture & El Museo Forestal, evento que se celebra anualmente, el tercer fin de semana de agosto. Para tener en cuenta.

An intriguing door on the Central Garage, Port Isaac, Cornwall. Did it come from a nearby station on the LSWR's 'Withered Arm'? Or was it a non-railway sort of booking office? 25th September 2016.
booking.mamutrip.com te sugiere viajar a la Costa Amalfitana… Un lugar sacado de un cuento de hadas, con sus pequeños pueblos costeros y de montañas que se emplazan a lo largo de caminos curvilíneos y estrechos rodeados de olivos, limones y viñedos. Verás enormes acantilados mirando el turquesa mar mediterráneo, donde se emplazan los pueblos y pareciera que sus casas y calles están aferradas a los vertiginosos precipicios. En términos de la Unesco, y para que te hagas una idea: “La franja costera de Amalfi es de una gran belleza natural. Ha estado intensamente poblada desde principios de la Edad Media. Incluye una serie de ciudades como Amalfi y Ravello, que albergan obras arquitectónicas y artísticas especialmente notables. Sus zonas rurales testimonian la capacidad de adaptación de sus habitantes que han sacado partido de la diversidad del terreno de cultivo, desde los viñedos y huertos en terrazas en las laderas bajas, a las tierras de pastoreo en las tierras altas”.
