Cool Scandinavian Things, Part Three
I guess that's the sign of a good vacation. I keep going through my photos from Norway and Denmark and see more things I want to share with you via these blog posts. Today's collection of cool things is a bit random.
Smaller coffee holders.
These two cup holders make a lot of sense don't they? If I'm only buying two cups, why do I need a four-cup holder? The smaller size is reflective of the Scandinavians' interest in environmental issues. Sustainability is a priority there. I wish I took a photo of their beautiful recycling bins that were everywhere. Do you know of any Jersey Shore places that are offering these smaller coffee cup carriers?
Pretty manhole covers.
We saw a range of beautiful, artistic images. It almost felt weird to step on them.
Humorous Bathroom Signs.
Those universal signs for men's and ladies' rooms can get boring. I love what I saw at the airport in Bergen Norway. Haven't we all assumed those positions? Be honest. The graphics shown in these photos are smile-inducing.
Another thing that made me smile was saying the word "Hygge." It's a concept of coziness that the Danes have perfected. I'll tell you more about it in a future blog post.
