Say hello to Svala and Ester whom I met in the entrance hall at the Central Station in Copenhagen. They were standing in the middle of the hall and as they did not look busy I approached them and asked them to participate in my project. They both accepted without blinking an eye, and Ester answered me: "we certainly qualify for your project, we're from Iceland". They told me that they had been on a business trip during the past week, and that they now intended to stay in Copenhagen over the week-end as tourists in order to see more of the city. They were both in high mood and I promised to help Ester with a detail about the photo, - I hope you're pleased Ester !
They wished me good luck with the project, and I thanked them both and wished them a great week-end in Copenhagen.
Svala (means Swallow - the bird- in Icelandic), and Ester (right) is from Queen Esther in the Old Testament, - but I guess most of you knew that already!
