We came upon this statue of a couple:

and I thought there was something funny about it. As we got closer, I realized that someone had embellished the male part of the sculpture:

It somehow felt out of place in a small Bavarian town, where half of the window display at the local bookstore consisted of various Christian books and the standard greeting is "Grüss Gott" instead of "Guten Tag".
Well, my wife rented a car and continued on to Zurich while I drove back home. Later in the week, I went to Copenhagen to do some errands and to visit friends, breathe Danish air and be surrounded by the Danish language. When I am in Denmark, I like to visit the places where I used to go with my late parents. This is a place I often went to with my mother, a park and lake in Vallensbæk, south of the city:

In the center of Copenhagen is a street called Gammel Strand, which is one of my favorite spots there, for a couple of reasons. One, it has the best beer shop in Copenhagen; two, it has an old-fashioned public urinal, a godsend in a city where going into a bar to use the toilet is frowned upon, and there are not many secluded spots. Just because I need to pee does not stop me from exploring picture opportunities:

Lest you think it was all about intake and disposal of beer, I also went to some art exhibits, including the annual show at Charlottenborg:
