Roadtrip – A B B Y N S T A . C O M

Get pampered, they say ;)

August 2, 2021 No Comments

After a mesmerizing day in heavy rains in Rubjerg Knude and a very good sleep in Hjørring, the following day was fully dedicated to get pampered with wellness in Aalborg. But first, a breakfast – once again at Højene Bageren, in Frederikshavnsvej in Hjørring 😉

Hereafter, we went to Aalborg, got a lunch at Friend’s Cafe in Aalborg. Not that worth. Look how unappetizing my pasta looks. Absolutely without taste -__-

Then I had booked a wellness treat for us, at House of Wellness. Very much needed, and sooooo good! We got “Just The Two of Us” for 2 persons, which included full body massage, peeling and a facial. Damn, what a pleasure it was 🙂 A very good treat, and I will definitely give the staffa great applause for a pleasant and kind treat.

Ever seen Rubjerg Knude during downpour? – Another trip to Northern Jylland

August 1, 2021 No Comments

Again, later in july this year, my bestie and I went for a road trip to Rubjerg Knude, Hjørring and Aalborg. We were not really sure about whether to go to Rubjerg Knude or not, as it was going to rain, but we somehow did – because, I badly wanted to see this place once again, especially during rain, and I wanted my bestie to see it too.

Råbjerg Mile & Hjørring

July 2, 2021 No Comments

After a day-long trip to the Palm Beach, Skagen and Grenen, we went to Råbjerg Mile. Yes, really we did.

Råbjerg Mile, the (mini) desert-like place of Denmark. It is actually a migrating set of sand dunes, that keeps moving about 15 metres per year, towards Kattegat. It is the largest of its kind in Northern Europe. It has a space of about 1000 m long and 1000 m wide dune of sand, where the highest point is approx. 40 m above sea level. I think this place is mesmerizing, and definitely a must-visit!

Throwback – Roadtrip – Palm Beach & Skagen and Grenen ;)

July 1, 2021 No Comments

Guys, I tell you – Covid-19 made it tough for many of us, and I’m definitely not excluded 😉

After more than 2 years without travels, and 1,5 year without any trips in Denmark too, I must say that I was pretty much tired and badly wanted to do something! So a friend and I decided to go for a roadtrip in Northern Jutland for 2 days. She is actually from Copenhagen, so we took some days off during june, met in Aarhus for some brunch, enjoyed a lovely sunny day in Aarhus around the Marselisborg park and beach, spent some time at the Endless Bridge.

Tamil Nadu, India

The Rockfort Temples, Tiruchirapalli

April 12, 2018 No Comments

While staying in Tamil Nadu, we went on a roadtrip through the most of Tamil Nadu, to visit certain temples – among these where the Panchabootha Sthalas and Aarupadaiveedu.

From Mylapore – Chennai, we went directly to Trichy (Thiruchirapalli), which took about 6 hours by car. Here, we stayed at a hotel, as we were very tired. We stayed at PLA Residency. It is a 3 star hotel, but it was a very neat and a nice place, with a very good restaurant. We could actually see the Uchi Pillaiyar Temple from the hotel. We went to Uchi Pillaiyar Temple the next morning.

The temple is from the 7th century CE, dedicated to lord Ganesh, built on the Rockfort. The rock is 83 m tall. There are 2 temples built on the rock, while Uchi Pillaiyar Temple is on the top, while the other one – the Thayumanaswami Temple, is located close to the base. These 2 temples make the Rockfort Temples.
