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.
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...

VIAJAR A SAN FRANCISCO
Viajar a San Francisco puede ser una inteligente opción para tus próximas vacaciones. En esta ciudad podrás encontrar muchas actividades culturales y de ocio y disfrutar de una estancia inolvidable. La mejor zona donde alojarse en San Francisco es en Downtown (centro de la ciudad), ya que es la zona más cómoda y práctica para conocer la ciudad y evitar desplazamientos en transporte público. El centro es el lugar con mayor oferta en hospedaje (por lo que te va a resultar más fácil y económico encontrar hotel). Otro lugar recomendable dónde alojarse en San Francisco es en Union Square, una zona repleta de comercios y servicios, siempre llena de gente en la calle y lugares dónde salir por la noche. Muy cerca de Union Square, se encuentra el barrio financiero, conocido como Financial District, ideal para viajes de negocios. Un lugar frecuentado por los viajeros es el distrito de Marina (situado cerca del mar), dónde la mayoría de sus hoteles se concentran en su calle principal, Lombard Street. El barrio de los teatros, conocido como Theater District y South of Market (SoMa) también son muy buenos barrios dónde pasar la noche (son lugares de moda, por lo que los precios pueden ser un poquito más elevados).
LA ISLA Y LA PRISIÓN DE ALCATRAZ. La Isla Alcatraz se encuentra en la Bahía de San Francisco y es uno de los lugares más llamativos de este rincón de California. Desde la ciudad se divisa un enorme recinto, con sus muros gruesos y su silencio. El Fuerte de Alcatraz se convirtió en uno de los puntos más importantes de la defensa americana ante el avance de las colonias extranjeras. Décadas más tarde, Alcatraz se convirtió en una prisión de máxima seguridad. Allí eran encerrados los presos nacionales más peligrosos. No obstante, lo que más fama le ha dado a este lugar son los numerosos intentos de escape por parte de los presos. Al Capone, George Kelly, Robert Straud, Frank Morris y los hermanos Anglin son algunos de los protagonistas de estas fugas, aunque sólo la de estos últimos se llevó a cabo con éxito, y pudieron huir por el agua. Esta prisión funcionó hasta 1963, cuando por motivos de seguridad debió clausurarse: el agua del mar había provocado importantes desperfectos en la estructura y su mantenimiento resultaba demasiado caro. Los inviernos de San Francisco son templados y el frío no se hace sentir nunca. La temperatura mínima es de unos 9ºC en enero, que es el mes más frío. El frío es suavizado por la cercanía con el Pacífico, que abraza a la ciudad con una brisa marina suave que hace que la temperatura se mantenga en equilibrio. En esta época también son frecuentes las precipitaciones de forma copiosa y suelen venir acompañadas de fuertes vientos, lo cual puede ser algo molesto si estamos paseando por las calles. El período que va desde septiembre hasta enero es el menos propicio para planear tu viaje a San Francisco.
Te llevamos a conocer ALCATRAZ, la prisión que se hizo conocida por las grandes fugas de personajes peligrosos, reservando ya en booking.mamutrip.com o a través de mamutrip.com.ar/

BIO
Harry Adorno was raised in New York City’s El Barrio area, where he was influenced by all forms of Latin culture. By the age of eleven, Harry had developed a kinship with salsa music, and joined The Boys Harbor of Music, a music school at The Museum of El Barrio, which is now the Harbor Conservatory for the Performing Arts.
Harry started playing Latin Music professionally in 1988 when he joined “Grupo Fascinacion”, one of the more popular Latin bands of the time. He later joined Sergio George’s RMM Productions, which enabled him to work with a wide range of artists, including Cheo Feliciano, Celia Cruz, Ruben Blades, Adalberto Santiago, Junior Gonzales, Raulin Rosendo, the late Frankie Ruiz, and many other notable Latin performers.
As one of the most highly sought-after session musicians in Latin music today, Harry performs and records with many of today’s greatest artists. He has appeared on Raulin Rosendo’s album Lo Maximo, Simplemente; on Junior Gonzales’s album Mis Raizes; and on Willie Colon’s album Demasiado Corozon. Harry has also recorded with Ray Santos and his Big Band, as well as Cachao. He toured with Willie Colon for the past five years, and is currently playing with the Copacabana Band.

AEROPUERTO ROISSY-CHARLES DE GAULLE: COSAS QUE HAY QUE SABER
booking.mamutrip.com te sugiere viajar a Francia. Francia es un país muy visitado recibe turistas de todos los origenes. Es necesario estar en la terminal 3 horas antes de un vuelo intercontinental y 90 min antes si se trata de un vuelo doméstico. Los pasajeros que no tengan que facturar equipaje deben estar solo a la hora del embarque que se indica en la tarjeta. El aeropuerto está situado a 26 km al Noroeste de París y de muy fácil acceso desde la capital. Saliendo desde la estación de Opéra, el Roissybus cuesta 11 euros y el trayecto dura entre 45 y 60 minutos. Esta es una de las posibilidades. Para ir de Roissy-Charles de Gaulle a Orly se puede tomar la línea B del RER y después el ORLYVAL con una conexión en la estación de Antony. Hay que contar más o menos 1h15 de trayecto y cuesta 21,50 euros para adultos y 12,75 euros para niños. También se puede utilizar el Bus Direct, la forma más directa que une los dos aeropuertos en más o menos el mismo tiempo (1h15) por 21 euros. Los pasajeros que vuelen en la compañía Air France pueden disfrutar gratuitamente de este traslado si su punto de destino es Fort de France (Martinique), Pointe à Pitre (Guadeloupe), la isla de la Reunión o Cayenne (capital de la Guayana Francesa). También todos aquellos que combinen un billete de avión con uno de TGV (Tren de alta velocidad francés). Para no tener que cargar con las maletas de un lado para otro se pueden dejar unas horas o incluso días en la consigna “Bagages du monde” situada en la Terminal 2, nivel 4 de la Estación de TGV frente al Hotel Sheraton. Las maletas son controladas antes de guardarlas en un local custodiado por video-vigilancia. El coste es de 6 euros al día para algunas horas. Respecto de los taxis desde el 1 de marzo ya no hay sorpresas: los precios entre la capital y el aeropuerto son fijos. Cuesta 50 euros ir desde la orilla derecha del Siena hasta Roissy y 55 euros hacerlo desde la orilla izquierda. Siempre hay que utilizar los taxis oficiales.

Every year, in December, I give an evening talk about Africa. This year I am talking about Southern Africa based on my visits to four countries in that sub-continent. As you might have guessed, it focuses on wildlife with some scenery and people thrown in.
It will happen at RSPB Lochwinnoch Nature Reserve on Wednesday 5 December
7.30pm - approx 9.30 pm. Places are limited and booking is essential. Please phone 01505 842663 to book.
This image is of a bokmakierie, which is a species of shrike, but unlike the true shrikes, which perch conspicuously in the open, this one is shy and skulking! I heard it lots and saw it very few times. This one was at Addo Elephant National Park and it hopped out in to the open for a few seconds. It has a typical shrike diet of insects, small lizards, snakes, small birds and frogs. It is predated itself by snakes, mongooses, and large shrikes like the common fiscal and southern boubou.
