Absolutely agree! I'm from Vestsjælland, and I've been to Africa, China, India, and most European countries by motorcycle and plane, but never been to Aalborg, Århus, Skagen, Bornholm, and lots of other "huge" areas of Denmark. For 19 years we (my parents and I) had a beach kiosk where we lived 5 months a year, with a view to Sejerø and Nekselø, and at the end of each season, we always said: "Next year we'll go there" - but we never did, and now I'm the only one left!

I've been wanting to say this for a long time: I freakin' love you guys! Not only is it interesting for a Dane like me watching you explore your 'new' country and all the things you see and places you visit, you are also - in my opinion - the very model for how foreigners settling in Denmark ought to behave: You seem very interested in finding out who we are and what our country and society has to offer - I wish all people coming to live here would do the same and behave more or less like you! Please keep up the good work - and have a very pleasent weekend and an even better summer! You rock! Respect! :)

The MOST awesome thing I ever saw in Kildeparken/The Singing Trees was when Leonard Cohen died. ALL the trees were "singing" - EXCEPT the Leonard Cohen one that was mute, and where someone had placed some candles in front of it. Very poignant. Very cool.

I'm from Aalborg and I live very close to the street food market. I'm glad you enjoyed your time here:) Did you visit our local brewery Søgaards Bryghus? If you come to Aalborg again I can highly recommend The Wharf as well. It's a pub but they don't have the regular range of beers you see in most places. It's always worth a visit :) A trip up in Aalborg Tårnet for a view of the whole city is also a fun thing to do, or maybe go to Duus Vinkælder. A restaurant/bar underneath Jens Bang Stenhus. It dates all the way back to 1624 :)

Thank you for spelling it correctly with Aa 😜 When you visit again, I have some suggestions for you. First up, museums; Gråbrødrekloster Museet, a subterranean museum in the middle of Aalborg. Then there's Kunsten Museum of Modern Art Aalborg. Further more there's "Springeren", a maritime museum, it's really close to the Street food market. Next up, cafe's. Klostertorvet is a tiny and really cozy café, hidden away in a back ally, square area. There's also Café "Café Ulla Terkelsen London", named after a well know (in Denmark) Danish reporter, and the standard opening line for reporters back in the day, where they said their name followed by the city they were reporting from. The café has a very distinct interior decoration, mix up style with focus an being cozy. Given, it's been quite a while since I have been there, but they have a amazing weekend "all you can eat" brunch. Lastly, you need to try a "bøfsandwich", a very Jysk thing. Kind of a burger, but with beets, fried onion, remolade, pickles, and most importantly; bathed in traditional gravy. One of the best places to get on in Aalborg is at Restaurant Vestre Baadelaug. Lastly, close to Vester Baadelaug, there's "Fjordbyen", a tiny quirky place with 122 small homes. Almost like a kolonihave, but with no rules. So it's a crazy mixture of colorful alternative shed houses to absolutely modern designer (albeit small) homes. Oh, and if you are feeling adventurous, there's an old factory in Godthåb not far from Aalborg. Where they used to manufacture tools, using water power from a nearby stream. All the belt driven machinery is still there, and in working order. Visit at the right time, and they run them all and demonstrate how tools were made. www.godthaab-hammervaerk.dk/info.html

The guy that runs that wagon make some fantastic burgers and it is American style (if I recall correct, he is an American himself). As he describes it on his Facebook page: A genuine American Street Food Truck, Class A Hot Dogs, Huge Burgers, Great Tastes.

I think I remember there being some old trees that died in that area of the park where the Singing Trees now rules. Cliff Richard was the first to plant a tree in 1987, but adding music did not become a tradition before 2012. Cliff Richard was invited back to begin this tradition as well, since he was the first superstar to plant a tree.

Welcome to Aalborg. If you like Penny Lane, you should definitely also try Søgaards Bryghus - both for the beer and the food. Both places are founded by the same people and while very different both seems like they are based on a passion for great food (and beer). As for the area, it’s definitely worth looking for one of the walking tours, we have history spanning from Vikings over the Medieval times to WW2 history - lots of history to see and hear, and given the relatively small area it’s quite a nice way to get around. Feel free to reach out if you need any inspiration should you visit another time. :-)

When I worked in Nashville, it was a 40km drive just to go to work from where I lived so I did that two times a day, 5 days a week in the summers. 8-10 hour drives to see family are really common in the U.S. For many years we drove 700mi (1127 km) each way just to see Josh's family for Thanksgiving. Driving 100km is really not that far for us.

@@TravelinYoung Actually.. as the marine museum has a great deal of post ww2 history, you might want to experience the deeper story of the cold war quite literally.. I joined "Nordjyske Museer" a few years ago, as I became a member of "Fyrkat's venner (friends of fyrkat, obviously". But the cool thing about that initiative, which is really something special, is that they occasionally invite members, to experience the new ventures before they open for the public. And recently I was invited to REGAN Vest, for a tour of the nuclear bunker up north of Rold Skov (which btw is the largest Forrest in Denmark). In 2012 the program for protecting the royal family and the sitting government was ended, since the threat level was effectively gone. And that meant the buildings, were handed over to the cultural preservation society, and the past 8 years they have been working on making the bunker into a cultural significant hotspot of the late part of the cold war scenario. And it's scheduled to open next year, as a historical attraction. I was part of the NBCR preparedness team in the last years of the detente (and yes I know how old and crusty, that little detail makes me) The stories of close calls and minor aggressions in our area, had huge strategic implications and is a relatively new thing to be exposed. So I would be inclined to, encourage you to think about a visit in the near future, maybe next summer or whenever you're free and ready for a little tour underground. You will explore how time stood still, sometime in the past 20 or 30 years, because everything is still as it was during the operative period. And I guarantee that it's not a typical case of Traveling Young 😊 Although I believe they are possibly brewing a commemorative beer for the opening. It's not under command, so the zero tolerance policy has been abolished.. You could maybe combine a 4th of July in Rebild with that occasion, it's only a few kilometers away from the bunker... Cheers and blessings to you all.

Denmark had a mad King and Great Britan had a mad King at the same time, the movie about Struensee a Royal afair with mads Mikkelsen is about that time. And zatrina Caterina the greate was also at the same time.. And it was just before the french revolution..

The town I was born in❤️ Almost… You have to know, that Nørre Sundby (North of Limfjorden) and Aalborg is 2 different Citys😂 Today you call it Aalborg. I was born in Nørre Sundby and it is 65 years ago😱 Born north of Limfjorden is much nicer. We are the tuffest, the smartest, the cool people.( like the danes feeling much smarter than the swedes, people from Jylland making jokes about the crazy iland called Sjælland …..) danish humor🤪🥰😂 My father was an officer in Karup by Lindholm Høje, my grandfather was an ingeneer and his firm buil the tunnel between Aalborg and Nørre Sundby and my family worked the brewery, Urban, and latter Raders Brewery. (Henrik and Per Sander). So I have been drinking a lot of that beer and soda, the made😍 I now live almost by the see in the western part of Sjælland. It is also nice. DK is nice❤️ But the real see in my opion is Vesterhavet🌊, I have to see it, hear it and swim in it every year. Had summerhouse in Blokhus, later Løkken at Badehotellet. You have to visit Lønstrup, Løkken, Blokhus, Hirtshals……. And of cource Skagen🌊

Yeah, it's a bit of a challenge when we record on our actual vacation. We pick and choose what we do for ourselves and what we do on camera. In the case of Aalborg we decided early on that we'd go back again to make another video in the future to catch the things we didn't get recorded this go round. It's a balance to make sure we also can relax on vacation. Thanks for the tips though, they will for sure be included when we get back again!
