Proposed. Copenhagen's street food markets, Reffen, Broens, and the kiosks along the lakes, open for outdoor season. The smorrebrod stands, the coffee carts, the aebleskive griddles. The Danes emerge from winter, blinking in the light, and line up for a polsehorn, a sausage in a bun, eaten standing up.
Tivoli Gardens, the amusement park in the center of Copenhagen that inspired Walt Disney, opens for the summer season. The flowers are planted, the rides are running, and every Copenhagen family walks through the gates as if they have never seen a roller coaster before. They have. They go every year.
You observe the giant panda in bamboo forests, the Yangtze finless porpoise in rivers, and the Chinese alligator in wetlands across this vast country. You notice that dogs and cats are increasingly popular as pets in urban areas, though many rural families keep chickens, pigs, and ducks. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
You enjoy Laško beer and Radenska mineral water, which are iconic Slovenian beverages found in homes and restaurants throughout the country. You understand that these brands represent Slovenia's tradition of quality production and its small nation's ability to create products that define everyday Slovenian life.
