Lost in Florida

Downtown Jacksonville

As the weather was super nice (almost too hot for me and I even had to buy sunscreen!) the first week, I explored the city on foot and went almost everywhere where it was possible to walk from my hotel.

I still have to see the “five-points” neighborhood that I’ll see when I go to the Cummer Museum (probably tomorrow).

Here are photos of my walks: (#winter)



Pour lui (le proprio des Jacksonville Jaguars) la vie est assez cool.

Confederate Park






Treaky Oak Park



I did not put this there!

Jacksonville under the rain

We had a big storm on Monday, apparently one of the strongest in a long time. Fortunately I had just came back in before it exploded and it lasted a big part of the night, leaving a few marks the next day and a little greyish sky for the beginning of the week.

Mormors

Mormors
Bredgade 45, 1260 København K
Monday: 08:30 a.m – 4 p.m
Tuesday to Friday: 08:30 a.m– 5 p.m
Saturday & Sunday: 11:30 a.m to 5 p.m

Completely different vibe at “Grandma’s.” I think the name (and the following photos) says it all.


The prices are a little high, I paid a little more than forty crowns for a Chai Latte (Vs less than 30 in most cafes) and 25 DKK for a scone. But it is the Nyhavn/Amalienborg district (just two steps from Marmor Kirken), the tourists area by excellence, by the way Grandma also sells souvenirs!

Bankeråt

Bankeråt
Ahlefeldtsgade 27-29 (au coin de Nansensgade), 1359 København K
Monday to Friday from 9:30 to 24:00 – Weekends and holiday from 10:30 to 24:00

Regular prices but absurd and bizarre atmosphere, I’ll let you judge. We went there late a Monday evening so we can’t say there were a lot of people. However, two Danes approached us saying something like “wow this is nice,” I suspected they were not talking about me but I was sufficiently confused by the fact that DANES HAVE SPOKEN TO ME! They were actually interested in my tattoo, they threw a look and discussed two minutes. Note to self: only wear tank tops all winter to make friends!

Driver License

If your driver’s license is issued in an EU country, Norway, Lichenstein, Iceland or the Faroes, you do not need to exchange it for a Danish one. If your license is valid for more than 15 years you can use it for 2 years before you change it. However, if you wish to apply for a Danish drivers license you may do so.

You must meet up in person at a Borger Service (Inner City, Sundby or Bispebjerg, it doesn’t matter) – open Mon-Wed: 10.00-17.00, Thurs: 9.00-18.00, Fri: 10.00-15.00.

You have to bring:

– Your national driver’s license, if the original is lost, a confirmation of the existing is necessary, not older than 1 month.

– A valid passport

– A passport picture (you can have it taken there for DKK95 for 2)

– If you are not a Nordic citizen, you must bring your residence permit

– 280DKK (the license is not free) – payment only in cash or with Dankort or Visadankort.

No test to take.

You will receive a temporary drivers license valid for 2 or 3 months and you will receive your license directly in your mailbox home.
It is valid for 15 years, then you have to renew it, mostly to update the picture.

 

edit 10/30/2014 : If you need and international driver license, go back to the Borgerservice Center with your danish license, an ID pic, and avec votre permis danois, 25 DKK, it will be done in less than 5 minutes !
