More fun Williamsburg graffiti. Found this painted outside of the Drum Shop.

Ain’t that the truth!!!

I’ve recently moved to a new neighborhood in Brooklyn. I am loving it!~ Williamsburg tends to be a bit more creative and eclectic and I have been taking all sorts of pics of the wacky art I pass each day. Case in point, this ATM Art I spotted on Metropolitan avenue the other day.  I think it’ great! I wish all ATM’s were given an artistic face lift, then I wouldn’t feel so ripped off when they charge me to take money out!

A tattoo kit for your child from our favorite website People of Walmart. Now we know what to get our niece for Christmas!

Well I am happy to report my Danish is coming along nicely. It was a wise move to start taking classes! You can only go so far on your own and I feel it really helps to be amongst other people struggling with learning a new language. One thing I did not expect from taking a Danish class is how much I have learned about my own language. I never thought about why we say things the way we do in English. It’s been challenging but also a lot of fun.

The people in my class are very diverse. Everyone is learning the language for a different reason, but we all have one thing in common-we all enjoy learning about Danish culture. Our teacher is from Copenhagen, her name is Camilla (it seems-all girls are named Camilla in Scandinavia) and she is very sweet, but tough! She really forces us to speak Danish since almost of the class is taught in Danish.

Overall, the experience has been very positive and I intend to stick with it. I will keep you posted on my progress!
