ayvee Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 I really wish she would make it out here to San Francisco Bay Area! Seattle is on the West Coast but still far away. Why is that lady sticking her tongue out in that group photo? Very perplexing to me. I hope there will be more coverage of her visit in the US press.

Danish band performing...I think the music was supposed to be "grunge" rock..?? Originally from the Seattle area. (I had to look it up...) They look like pretty young girls to me and maybe the tongue thing is what she thought she was supposed to do. I am too old, obviously, because it just looks stupid.

Leonie Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 After noticing the sign for the Department of Scandinavian Studies at the Universty of Washington, I had to look it up. It is an extensive program that goes through to PhD level. https://scandinavian.washington.edu/ There are other similar programs at universities in Canada and the U.S., but the one at the U. of Washington is impressive. Just up the road from me at The Ohio State University, there is a program which offers a course in Old Norse-Icelandic language, which apparently is not for the faint of heart.
