Danish society is often oblivious to religious sensitivities. Apparently my kid will go to church today. No permission slip needed.

Message from our government run day-care:
"In addition to a lot of festive fun the children had cozy Christmas lunch with delicious food. Tomorrow the last event of the year awaits, a visit to the church, together with the other children institutions."

I hope the kids wear high-vis gear.

After two days in Copenhagen checking out the cycling, all I can say is wow.


The first segment of the Fehmarnbelt Tunnel is in place.

An important step in one of the largest infrastructure projects currently underway: the first segment of the Fehmarnbelt Tunnel between Denmark and Germany has been submerged off the Danish port city of Rødby, after a manoeuvre lasting several days.

Now 88 more are needed.

I made this shot at Møns Klint in Denmark. When I took it, I didn’t realize how much potential it had, so it was just a rather quick photograph. When I saw the photo on my computer, I kind of regretted not spending more time on it. Nevertheless, I really like the way it turned out.

Today’s post is a “would have” one. Today, 15 April 2026, would have been the first day of operation of the #Basel🇨🇭#Malmö 🇸🇪 #EuroNight #472, stopping, en route, at various stations in #Germany 🇩🇪 and #Denmark 🇩🇰, and operated by #BTE #BahnTouristikExpress.
Lacking government funding, the operation of this train was eventually cancelled. (And, a few weeks ago, I got a refund for the ticket I bought.)
A shoutout to all who really tried hard to get this train running!

A bicycle node network has a wayfinding system of numbered nodes for recreational #cycling, on a regional/national scale. We have previously shown on bikenetwork.dk/ the low bikeability in #Denmark outside of cities, now improved by the new bicycle node network.

Meanwhile back on earth our woodland is enjoying a nice spring storm. Some of our trees are enjoying it a bit less.

Denmark’s “Pig Election” put drinking water and industrial animal farming at the centre of politics.

Big Ag has polluted groundwater for years, and now people are fighting back for clean water, public health and a different food system.

GRWM for the iconic #PigElection 🐷

#Denmark is the world’s most intensive pig producer, and the industrial meat lobby interests have heavily influenced our environmental policies. I’m just asking...when will someone actually stop this crap?

We’re tired of nitrate-polluted water and corporate greed. We took the fight directly to their doorstep ✊

Denmark's Frederiksen weakened by an election setback, coalition talks loom.

Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen faced a sharp electoral setback Tuesday as her Social Democrats slid toward their worst result in more than a century.

Despite broad international backing for her firm stance toward Washington over Greenland, domestic concerns over migration and the cost of living dominated the vote.

Meanwhile in Denmark, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen’s Social Democrat Party have not done well, but then again neither did the main right wing party.... one of the key improving performers was the Danes' Green Party (although the anti-immigration party also polled well).

It does raise the prospect of the Green alternative to mainstream politics becoming more appealing as the climate changes & Green parties are seen as having consistently been on top of this issue.

Denmark votes in a close election overshadowed by Trump’s Greenland bid.

Denmark votes in early general elections on Tuesday with centre-left Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen hoping her staunch line against Donald Trump’s push to annex Greenland will carry her to a third term in office.

Overseas seats held by Denmark’s autonomous territories, including Greenland, could tip the balance if the election result is close.
