Showing off Copenhagen

It is not unheard of that we have friends and family visiting. And we often end up walking around. This last weekend we had Eli-Anne, a friend back from when I was active in IFES or Laget as we call it in Norway. We also worked as collegues at the Norwegian School of Theology.
Here we are at the "Gråbrødretorv" in the center of Copenhagen. "Gråbrødre" refers to an old name for the Franciscan order (Ordo Fratrum Minorum) because of their grey robes, signifying poverty and abstinence. There used to be a monastery at Gråbrødretorv, but today it's a just a lovely little square, tucked away from the more busy "Strøget".
