Distortion Day 1

Wednesday was a relatively relaxing day until it was time to get distorted. Class was uneventful in the morning, and it seemed to fly by. We were going to have Taco Tuesday last night, but by the time we got to the store we were too late and the store was already closed. Taco Wednesday would work all the same, so for lunch/dinner we made scrumptious homemade tacos. We decided to ditch the shells and just have a taco salad with corn chips, but it was good all the same. You really can't go wrong with homemade guacamole.

Now it was time to get distorted. There is an annual music festival in Copenhagen called Distortion. This "party-tsunami" is basically a giant party in the streets of Copenhagen. Thousands of people come from all over to dance and drink in the streets while listening to DJs on every corner. Distortion runs from Wednesday until Saturday and is in a different part of Copenhagen every night, which is probably a good thing considering the amount of trash that accumulates after just one night. Following the street parties are after parties at various bars throughout the area, but it usually costs a lot of money to get in. It is still just as fun to hang out in the streets, so we decided to skip the after parties, especially since we have school the next day.

Among other outrageous adventures, we danced, we drank, we met people in costumes, we met some interesting English fellows, and we went home dazed. I'm not sure how to describe the night in any other way, but let's just say it was distorted.
