Study Tour: part deux

The Western Denmark tour was great! Our last stop was the Trapholt art museum, the museum that I built a model of for my first project. It was strange visiting a building for the first time but knowing so much about it. It was less monumental than I had imagined. The building has a strange geometry on one side, but you hardly even see that side of the building when you visit the site.

After we visited Trapholt, on our way back to Copenhagen, the bus driver pulled off of the main road into a residential neighborhood. The bus stopped and the group leader announced that the bus was broken. It could not go above the kilometer equivalent of 30 mph, so we would all have to leave the bus and join the other study tour group on their already full, but supposedly bigger bus. Our luggage, the said, would meet up with us later in Copenhagen. Everybody grumbled, but got off of the bus and began walking towards where we thought the other bus was waiting. On our way we walked through a churchyard during a wedding. They led us to the cemetery in the rear, and then surprised us with shots to celebrate the end of a great last study tour.
