TODAY PASSING THROUGH LOS ANGELES TRAFFIC IS A BIG JOURNEY BY ITS OWN RIGHT.THEN WE GO THROUGH SPLENDID SANTA BARBARA AND HER INCOMPARABLE BANYAN TREE,A GORGEOUS GREEN UMBRELLA.AND THE OLD UMBRELLA CHARLIE CHAPLIN BUILD IN SANTABARBARA AND CALLED IT MONTECITO INN ON FEBRUARY 16TH,1928,TO MAKE HOLLYWOOD WHO'S WHO INDULGED IN MEDITERRANEAN LIFE.HE EVEN WAS IN HIS USUAL IRONIC MOOD WHEN PICKED A NAME AND MIXED MOUNTAIN OF CALIFORNIA RIVIERA WITH THE CITY AMBIENCE.
WE THEN GREET THE JAVIDS AND THEIR MUSEUM-LIKE HOUSE ON THE HILL AND LEAVE NEVERLAND OF MICHAEL JACKSON AND ALL ITS TRAGIC MOMENTS BEHIND .AND HERE IT IS ,THE COUNTRY OF DENMARK.
WELCOMMEN!
THIS IS THE TOWN OF SOLVANG,CALIFORNIA,OR RATHER A SCANDINIVIAN VILLAGE NOT SURRENDERED TO A SPANIH COUNTRYM,FOUNDED BY DANISH SETTLERS IN 1911,WITH HER DAIRY AND DANISH AND SPECIALLY THE JAM POPPING ABLESKIVER PANCAKE BALLS,WITH THE WONDER WINDMILLS AND THE AMICABLE AMBIENCE.
WELCOMMEN AGAIN...
WE FORGOT TO TAKE OUR PASSPORT WITH US,BUT IT DIDN'T MATTER BECAUSE NO ONE ASKED FOR IT.SOLVANG IS ALL DANISH WITH THEIR PRINCE HAMLET EVERYWHERE AND KINGS AND QUEENS AND HAMLETT MILLS AND HAMLET INN AND HAMLET THEATRE AND FESTIVALS.NOT TO MENTION MOULIN ROUGE.ON LOAN FROM PARIS!
IN A LITTLE DANISH CAFFE NOT CALLED HAMLET WE WERE SERVED CUNCH WITH DANISH IN 106 DEGREES FARENHEIT,AND STILL NOT MELTED.TRISTAN AND SKYLAR WERE COOLING OFF WITH ICE CREAMS.WE HAD WATER AND ORGANIC JUICE,MEANING FRUIT FLAVORED WATER.
IN SOLVANG ALL THE NAMES ARE ALIENS,THE FLAGS TOO WHITCH APPEAR IN RED WITH A WHITE NARROW CROSS.AND STREETS ARE ALIEN AND FOODS AND FRUITS AND THE PUBLIC PARK AND OF COURSE HANS CRISTAN ANDERSON.
THE WHOLE TOWN OR VILLAGE IS CUTE.
THE PEOPLE ARE PRETTY.
WELCOMEN BACK!
WE WILL BE BACK COPENHAGEN TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
FARVEL SOLVANG!
