ASTRONOMY ITINERARIES: Aurorae

SDO IS GO: CME hits Earth and causes a moderate geomagnetic storm

The coronal mass ejection from August 1 hit the Earth at 1740 UT on August 3. It caused a moderate geomagnetic storm resulting in beautiful auroral displays. This photo was taken by Jesper Grønne of Denmark. A second eruption may hit Earth in the next two days, perhaps causing more geomagnetic activity.

SOLVANG ATTRACTIONS, PLACES, MAP and WALKING MAP:

Now we are ready for a real trip to Denmark :-)

D I T I N E R A R I E S

D stands for a combination of Danish and Disney itineraries, a birthday trip that we are planning to Disneyland with a Danish stop in Solvang, maybe a brick-or-treat too and other SOCAL gems.

First destination is S O L V A N G. This is the Danish Capital of US, set your GPS to Solvang, CA 93463, 1683 Copenhagen Drive. I always liked this place, and every visit to the little Hans Christian Andersen museum tucked upstairs in The Book Loft Building is enchanting. Somehow I always find something exciting here, refreshing for an almost 100 year old place. We never stayed overnight in Solvang though, and one time when later hours got us still there I remember that the town went silently to sleep. So I was looking for things to do in the late afternoon and stumbled upon an event that will make our young jewellery designer so happy: Meet John Kennedy and create a custom jewel

DENMARK FOR KIDS:

Next destination, LOS ANGELES WITH KIDS!
With only little time it will be tough to choose, but here is a beginning of LA ITINERARIES and a shorter wishlist for this trip:

We knew that LEGO history began in 1932 in Denmark and the name LEGO itself is a fusion of the Danish words “LEg” and “GOdt” (“play well”), but the Danes claim the inspiration for Disneyland comes from Tivoli Gardens too, so here’s another Danish destination in our itinerary :-)
