       Up until now, everything went smoothly. Caught our trains, ppl ate wearing their masks just like we do. It's weird, traveling.

       BTW, I opted out of fishing. It's not the right thing to do at the moment.Instead, I brought canvas and about 8 or so tubes of acrylic paint. 3 markers. Water-soluble wax crayons. Pigment ink. Maybe I'll do something with it!

       Leaving Hamburg for Kopenhagen. The trains of the DSB are so much nicer than those of the DB, it's a very pleasant surprise!

       Didn't have a great night. Our hostel room bordered to some kind of atrium (with 15 floors out so), and every minute or so I could hear the sound and loud echo of heavy doors, people screaming, laughing.I've been tense this whole trip. I wonder if it's just traveling with a kid, or if it's because of the... world situation.But the ANC headphones help a lot!

       Arrived at Copenhagen! Was surprised by some pride people coming from the parade there, they were so pretty! Somehow got to the vacation home. Now for some sleep. :blobcatsleep:

       I have indeed painted! And plein air nonetheless! Well, what i call plein air anyway. Posted it over on my art account. I like what I did there, even though it feels very much like I'm on a journey again and have not yet arrived somewhere where I can just paint with confidence.Which is totally okay and expected.We had a nice and calm day. Went to the beach twice, and @Oecan and the little one even went swimming a bit!

       Here are the eyeshadows I packed for this trip. It's definitely a very #limitedpalette for me!

       We went back to Copenhagen again today. Had a very nice day with the little one at the historic theme park (whose theme seems to be colonialism, it was... quite bad in that regard). Also visited the only music store in the area. Maybe I'll get a new DI this Friday!I am so exhausted now. Lying on the couch, legs up. Phew.

       Oh, and I also stopped by an art supply store and got me burnt umber, titanium white and something as close to my usual cerulean blue as I could get. They didn't carry the exact color, so I got primary cyan. Hope it works out!

       I very briefly considered the "Golden open" line that the shop also carried, but I remembered how I hate to wait for the paint to dry. 😂

       Now I'm contemplating the Arturia Minifuse 2 instead of the Minifuse 1. Because of one crucial feature. *sigh*

       Having no DI here means my ability to make music is seriously hampered. So I'll concentrate on painting, probably.

       BTW, I don't use the Zoom H4n pro that I got at home. Anyone interested in it? Preferably from Europe because of shipping. It's as good as new, I'd like to give it away for 190€ + shipping. Can throw in a foam cover for the mics and a furry wind shield.:boost_ok:

       It's started to seriously pour down here, and will keep doing this for some days. I don't mind at all, it's been way too dry and sunny. And, on a personal level, I got a sunburn that needs healing. And we packed board games. And a grandma arrived just yesterday - which is a bit sad for her, having all of us but not Denmark to interact with, but cool for us, and very good for the little one!

       It was a cool, calm and nice day. I was cranky because of the art situation and menstruation, but that's nothing new and, too, shall pass.It's nice that I was able to paint and it didn't go horribly wrong!Now: time for bed!

       Good morning! This is our last day here in Denmark, tomorrow we'll start our journey home. It's been very nice and relaxing and exciting, a very smooth and satisfying vacation all in all. And I even painted! I feel refreshed and content. And yet I'm already excited to sleep in my own bed again. :blobcatmmm:

       The last day on the beach yielded four more ambers! And the 10th painting of this vacation - I'll post it over at @TQ@mastodon.art in a sec.
