Nordic Halloween

While in Christianshavn, I took a photograph of some Shrovetide buns. The holiday is also called Fastelavn, hence the name Fastelavnsbolle or "Fastelavns bun". I ended up eating a Jordbærkage (strawberry-cake) from the bakery, since it looked way more tempting than the Shrovetide bun (see the second photograph).

We were able to watch Shrovetide Festivities at the National Museum. Below is a short video I took while at the museum.
