Copenhagen at itz best
Daylight for 21hours a day, the bright sun casting lights and shadows on the old colourful buildings lining up on both sides of the peaceful alleys
The ever changing daylight, sometimes a pale with a pastel-like touch; sometimes transparent with marshmallow clouds; sometimes a simply-nothing-else sky blue.
The lakes either in a shiny pink of dawn, thick orange sunset or opaque purple of twilight
Glittering waves of the water where ducks play and swans slowly drift by, storks in the air
Danish strawberries... the sweetest creatures on earth that you can't find elsewhere, as you gently bath them in light cream
The surprise visit from KaShing, the shock of him popping up in McDonald's, the excitement of missing a bus...
Squares and plazas filled with music, mostly jazzy, old folks tapping their feet , rocking their young-at-heart bodies, the skin a blush-red from the warmth of the pure sunshine without any bit of humidity, the icy cold of the dew hanging on the side of a cold beer in hand.
The old towns, old houses shine in daylight, brigtening up the perfect colour-pencil-pack combination along pebble streets street
The sound and sight of waves on a beach, a boat slowly sailing between the navy blue, turquoise and aqua
The islands lining up on both sides of the ocean, the coastline meticulously decorated by bits of yellow and orange and red and green, like a mini legoland.
Boundless fields, brown and yellow and green, nice little farm houses in midst of the fresh smell of nature. Red poppies among the grassland, a contrast of the stars in the sky. Little geese waggle as they line up between their parents, quacking and trodding back into the yard. Cows looking as relaxed as ever, lying down only to be disturbed by passing tourists.
Friends, the ever-so-cool and easy-going, energetic CJ,
a father, a teacher and a friend the nicest person ever Steffen,
Cheery lovely Priya who has the sweetest smile on earth,
and my roomie Marie who just can't hide her cuteness
My friend so long, simply a very good friend, caring and trustworthy, Arendse
I've got the best out of it.
Now I'm ready to go home, ready for things anew. To realize how I've changed, to rediscover Hong Kong, to create a brand new mixture of the old and new.
Ready to see my family and friends again and greet them with hugs and kisses.
That's what I said to my Dad, and I'll say to you all:
"See you in 2 days"
