Getting Married in December

Getting Married in December is very popular, for many reasons!

Summer, is usually busy, for all locations where destination weddings are popular, there are lots of tourists, it can be really hot, and travelling to an from locations can be expensive.

So you could flip the wedding norm and marry in the Winter... So what can we tell you about December weddings...

December in Denmark

Denmark is a nordic country, in December it is cold, there is every chance that it can snow - which is fantastic! But also it may rain- you can check out the weather HERE. When you are getting married in Denmark and considering have a wedding photographer, do bear in mind It is dark almost all day, with the sun rising late and setting early daylight hours are limited so when choosing your wedding time, and try to marry earlier in the day. But your wedding photographer can also advise on that.

Remember the Danish word 'Hygge' this is a word for being cosy, well in Denmark this is almost a sport, not just for people dressing, but for bars and restaurants and hotels alike, they excel in making things cosy. Be it roaring fires, big warm blankets, so you can still sit outside on the terrace, heat lamps. Big steaming frothy hot chocolates, mulled wine, hearty food that you can have either before or after you take a look around the Christmas markets, ice skate in the open air or simply walk through the towns and cities all 'hygged up'!

It doesn't matter where you decide to marry (take a look at our map here for your options) you can be sure that the scenery will melt your heart and the people will win your heart and even though you are marrying the love of your life and your heart will get bigger, you will, for sure leave a tiny bit of your heart in Denmark! And that's what we love, people coming back over and over and over to get some more Hygge!

Christmas in Copenhagen is magical with Tivoli being just stunning, having "Gløgg" or "Gluwein" and snuggling up to your soul mate - heaven!

December in Gibraltar

On the complete opposite end of the spectrum, Gibraltar also has so much to offer in December, it is hot! But not as hot as it is in the Summer (see my blog here for when I visited in August, I mention the heat quite a lot!). The sun is generally out every day it is lovely and warm in the afternoon, warm enough to see the sights with only a t-shirt and have amazing lighting for some wonderful photographs. Please see the average weather here, a lovely 18degrees, how perfect it that!

You can got to the beach, have lunch outside in the wonderful Catalan Bay, or explore the rock or have a coffee on casemates square out of the blazing Spanish sunshine.

So if its a sunshine wedding that you want but don't want the business or the heat of the Summer, Gibraltar is a perfect choice!

Please remember for both of these locations - demand is high! The dates do get booked up very quickly and we hate it when our couples are disappointed. Even in the Summer couples are looking at their amazing winter wedding and they are booking the dates!

If you want a winter wedding then please let us know, we can get your date booked in so you have something to look forward to at the end of the year, the diaries are open and we are making appointments, don't miss out!

The OG Red City

The Medina (old city) of Marrakech is a labyrinth - dusty, spindly old roads that look like they haven’t changed in hundreds of years. There is so much to look at: souks (shops) overspilling into the uneven cobblestones filled with goods like ceramics, spices, silk, hammam (Arab spa) towels, pastries, rugs, beautiful riads (house/hotels) tucked behind crumbling walls, and, ah yes, sometimes your life also flashes before your eyes, as electric bikes zoom full-speed past you in the most neck-breaking turns.

Marrakech is unlike any other destination we’ve visited in the past year. There’s a constant feeling of opposites in this city - pristine riads just behind a crumbling wall and broken door, the dusty markets contrasted to hammams and the islamic duty to keep yourself clean, overwhelrming chaos in the Jemaa El Fna and the tranquility of rooftop restaurants sitting under the stars.

A little history:

Marrakech is towards the south-west of Morocco - the primary language is Arabic, since the Arabs arrived approximately 800 years ago, and the second language is French, as the Moors traveled up through Gibraltar and cultural exchange took place. The indigenous group of this area were the Berber people, who were famous for living in the Atlas Mountains. This was a tremendously wealthy area at one point, and you can see the evidence of it still in the tombs. Which leads me to...

The Sights:

The city is extremely walkable, and we never used any public transportation. That said, be savvy - walk away from the pandemonium, get some maps or download off-line ones, and prepare ahead. As much as I love doing it, this is not a wandering aimlessly city. Almost all my travel friends use some sort of “favorite-ing” mechanism on the maps; I icon-code mine by food, places of interest, and where I’m staying.

The following sights are by no means comprehensive, just the ones I researched and, in bold, the ones i recommend. Pictures are followed by corresponding description.

Jemaa El Fna - they say if you haven’t been to the legendary square in the evening, you’ve never been to Marrakech. It’s overwhelming, a massive market filled with fruit, food, and little trinkets. you’ll see “snake charmers” and little monkeys, and if you even vaguely point a camera/phone in their handler’s directions, they will follow you aggressively until you tip them. I found this square rather touristy, and many of the shops were quite similar, but I suppose it was compulsory

Ben Yousef Madrasa - beautiful architecture at Marrakech's most prolific school. About $2 to get in per person. It won’t take you long to do, as you’re really just taking in the architecture, but we did discover some cool stuff like the boys dormitories upstairs, and how there are still pegs in the corner of the walls to climb up in to the little wooden second floor.

Maison de Photographie - amazing photographs taken by some of the very first photographers in the 1800s. The quality and vividness will shock you, and the familiarity will make you pensive. Pause at the rooftop terrasse for a light snack. it's quite romantic up there too, and you can see a panoramic view of the Medina- smoke rising from the ceramic workshops, the Koutoubia mosque, all surrounded by dripping greenery. The famous Koutoubia mosque is not on this list because it is not open to non-muslims.

Yves Saint Laurent Museum - YSL’s summer home was restored from the lush villa of famed artist Jacques Majorelle, and in Marrakech is the only house in the city not painted in the signature red. Definitely worth a visit to visit his full collection, sketches, personal items; If there is a man who really internalized his travels, it’s @ysl-fashion. His collections over 40 years were inspired by artists, craftsmanship, and cultures from all over the world.

Bypass the huge queue at the entrance of the Majorelle gardens and buy your 3-entry ticket from the Yves Saint Laurent Museum just 100 ft further down the street. The 3 entry gets you into YSL museum (highly recommend), Majorelle Gardens (also lovely), and the Berber Museum (interesting but small)

Other sites we did not see:

Marrakech Museum - we did not go, but apparently the best feature is the architecture, which you can clearly see from outside, so no reason to go in, right?

The Tombs - we really wanted to go, and we hear they are fabulous. The two specific tombs are from rulers from 300 years ago and 100 years ago, and its here you can really see the wealth of this old empire

Definitely do a Hammam, which I will cover in another post. It is essentially a Middle Eastern Spa, but it has a whole experience to it. We also did a viator trip into the Berber mountains, and it was our most exciting day....

Quads and Camels

This excursion took up a full day. I loved it for a few reasons: the delight of befriending my camel, conversing with local children while dining at a remote Berber kazbah, and the thrill of riding quads through the desert and into the mountains. If you (like me) don't have enough days to do a proper atlas mountain hike or go to another village, this is a nice way to get out of the Medina.

A car will be arranged to pick you up at 9am at your riad, just don’t do what we did and get into the wrong van. Apparently our pick-up location is a tourist hotspot, and groups of four aren’t exactly uncommon. We booked this excursion last minute, as you can tell we didn’t exactly pack appropriately. You definitely want to keep the headscarf they give you on, as it shields you from the heat. Long sleeves and pants are recommended.

The Souks

The souks are a labyrinth, especially at night when throughways become dead-ends. Stuffed full with local silks, cashmere, leather goods, dried fruit, Moroccan cookies and spices, ceramics and metalwork, it’s a constant assault on your eyes, nose, and with the frequent near-miss with a motorcycle, body.

You can and will get lost in here. I can not emphasize enough to be sure to download an offline map, and be careful after evening prayer around 6:30pm as random paths are closed and you'll have lots of locals trying to show you the way out for a hearty tip. Your best bet is to take an outer path after 7pm than to try to navigate the maze. We did figure out our way, but we were based in the northern end of the souks.

I was not in the market for a rug, but that is of course what Morocco is known for. Just know, whatever it is you intend to buy, they will offer you easily 3-4x what the cost is, and you cannot possibly not haggle. Do your research on what you should be paying, and don't be afraid to walk away. You can see lots of sites online that will show you what people were able to buy and for what price, so have an idea of what you're looking for before you go.

In addition to the Souks, I found a few shops I adored. They’re a bit pricier, but they all feature local artists and craftsmanship.

33 Rue de Majorelle - right across from the Majorelle Gardens, everything in there is BEAUTIFUL but expensive. I bought a pair of tassle earrings that my colleague told me looked like, when I decided a rug was out of my shopping range, I cut off the tassle ends and put it on my ears. In any case, I love them

Max & Jan - cool scarfs, leathers, and interesting assortment of weird things. I didn’t get anything from here, but it was fun just walking through the store

Riad de Vinci

HIGHLY recommend our Riad, I mean look how beautiful it is! It was at an optimal location too, just north of the Souks. Our host was gracious and informative, and we dined on the rooftop every morning and on our last night and it was delicious. We even befriended the host cat, Vinci, who was fat and mostly blind but if I held a bit of chicken tagine under his whiskeys he would nibble the meat gently out of my hand.

Most Riads will have breakfast provided to you in the morning, and can provide transfer from the airport (we paid 15 euro for all of us). The ride from the airport is no more than 25 mins, the morning we left it took us around 12 mins to get from the Medina to airport (granted, it was 4am).

LAST BUT NOT LEAST: Where to eat

Tagine, tagine, tagine. You can definitely get tagined out. But it’s delicious, at least for a few days, and one of my best meals was a lamb tagine from our first lunch at Le Jardin. Moroccan food is flavorful, rich, and has so many beautiful influences from French, Spanish, Arabic cultures. What is a tagine, you ask? It looks like a clay funnel casserole, and its essentially a tiny oven that you place IN the oven, usually filled with meats and spices. We had one nearly every meal.

My best meal: lamb tagine with almonds and apricots.

We adored these little pastry stands scattered through the souks - our favorite is a tiny cart on Rue Amsafah, where the teenage girl gave us lots of samples and sold us entire boxes of cookies for $2.

Terrase des Epices - beautiful rooftop, excellent food, good atmosphere. serves alcohol (many places don't). We came here twice, we liked it so much, and we bought most of our stuff from the souks in the courtyard downstairs

Le Jardin - our first meal, and as mentioned earlier makes an incredible lamb tagine. Lots of glamorous french people here

Nomad - also a beautiful rooftop, do this at night. portions are smaller compared to other restaurants but quite chic

Grand Cafe de la Poste - the only one I didn’t love, because 1) VERY expensive and 2) not at all Moroccan, you may as well have been in Paris. But still, if you’re in the new city area, a nice place to stop for a nibble

My best meal: lamb tagine with almonds and apricots.

Dinner at Nomad with some London friends!

Tapped out - but coming later:

What exactly do you do in a Hammam?

How to dress for Morocco

Spending during the holiday season should be easy but borders, physical and financial, often complicate matters. A world currency that can travel with you and is widely accepted sounds like a good idea. Among cryptocurrencies, bitcoin cash is an ideal candidate, with its low fees and instant transactions. New opportunities to spend, buy and sell BCH are emerging around the world all the time.

Also read: Telecom Giant AT&T Now Accepts Bitcoin Cash Payments

Europe’s Slovenia Leads in BCH Adoption

Bitcoin cash is a currency that facilitates payments and businesses, especially in the hospitality industry, are increasingly realizing its potential to do that. News.Bitcoin.com recently dispensed advice on how to travel the world with bitcoin cash. Now we’d like to follow up with information on what you can do with your coins once you reach your destination.

BCH adoption is growing globally but some places in particular deserve to be highlighted. Slovenia is a small picturesque country in South Eastern Europe which has over 300 merchants accepting BCH. Europe as a whole has 446, according to the Marco Coino app. Other notable examples include Australia, with more than 140, the U.S. with almost 120, and Japan where around 70 businesses take BCH.

Many renowned destinations will offer BCH users plenty of opportunities to spend their cryptocurrency. If you travel to Los Angeles, for example, you can lunch at Fresh Brothers Pizza which accepts bitcoin cash. One of the chain’s restaurants is located pretty close to LAX. And if you visit Hollywood, you can have a haircut at the Native LA Barbers shop and also pay with bitcoin cash. Currently, the State of California has over 30 locations where BCH is accepted.

The Northeast is another part of the U.S. where bitcoin cash can buy you goods and services. New Hampshire is an absolute champion with 16 companies accepting the cryptocurrency. New York has at least 7 businesses open to BCH payments. According to Bitconmap.cash, you can dine in a La Sirene seafood restaurant in Manhattan or get a coffee at the Mamacha Art Café paying with coins.

Bitcoin Cash ATMs at Niagara Falls and in Las Vegas

If you need to buy or sell bitcoin cash, numerous ATMs across North America support the crypto. According to Coinatmradar’s BCH Map, their number exceeds 1,350. For instance, two of them are located close to the Niagara Falls between the Canadian province of Ontario and upstate New York. And if you decide to spend some time and money in Las Vegas, on the other end of the continent, you’ll find over 40 BATMs selling BCH. The majority are two-way devices and will also buy your digital coins in case you need some fiat cash for the casinos.

In South America, Venezuela is by far the biggest bitcoin cash adopter. The Marco Coino map shows over 190 businesses accepting BCH there. Under normal circumstances, the country could be a very attractive tourist destination. However, crypto adoption in the past couple of years has been driven largely by severe economic and political crisis combined with record depreciation of the Venezuelan fiat currency, the bolivar. Over 30 companies in neighboring Colombia also welcome bitcoin cash payments. Unlike Venezuela, Colombia has many teller machines supporting BCH.

Europe is a pronounced leader in terms of bitcoin cash adoption. Beside Slovenia, where the vast majority of businesses accepting BCH are based, there’s the United Kingdom, which is home to 21 companies that take bitcoin cash, most of which are concentrated in and around London. Some of them, such as Westland Coffee & Wine and Dream Bags Jaguar Shoes Bar, are situated in the very heart of the British capital. There are also 18 BCH ATMs in London.

Lithuania is another country catering to BCH users. The small European nation hosts around 30 firms accepting electronic cash. Most of them are located in or close to the capital Vilnius. In general, crypto payments have been spreading rapidly across the Baltic region in the past few years. Businesses from multiple sectors, including real estate, online commerce, the hospitality industry, and even healthcare, are now billing products and services in digital coins. There are several bitcoin cash ATMs in neighboring Latvia and Estonia.

Spain, which gathers many tourists during all seasons, has 13 bars, restaurants and shops accepting BCH just in Barcelona, capital of Catalonia which is one of its most developed regions. Other businesses that work with the popular cryptocurrency are located in Zaragoza, Valladolid, Gibraltar and elsewhere. The country also has 15 BCH trading ATMs, one of which is in Madrid and another one on the Canary island of Tenerife.

BCH, From Gibraltar to Jerusalem

A great number of cruise tours are organized each summer in the Mediterranean. There are bitcoin cash accepting businesses in Gibraltar, close to the Spanish city of Alicante, the Tunisian capital Tunis, and in Israel. You’ll find bitcoin cash ATMs in Palma de Mallorca, Palermo and Napoli in Italy, and close to the Old City of Jerusalem. There’s also a BCH trading teller machine in Jeddah, not far from the holy city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia which like Jerusalem attracts millions of pilgrims every year.

Africa has been relatively slow to adopt cryptocurrencies for various reasons, but the South Africa can qualify as an exception. At least three companies in the area of Johannesburg, the largest city, accept payments in bitcoin cash and another one is based in Durban. Uganda, which is also considered to be a crypto-friendly nation, has a bitcoin ATM that supports BCH in its capital Kampala, close to Lake Victoria, the largest African lake and a place that’s worth visiting.

If you travel to Southeast Asia, you’ll find numerous places to spend your bitcoin cash. These include bars, restaurants and other businesses in the Thai capital Bangkok and in Singapore. Hong Kong has at least four companies taking BCH but further north, Japan is the pronounced leader with almost 70 businesses accepting payments in bitcoin cash. Most of them are in the capital Tokyo and in Osaka, which is the second largest metropolitan area in the county. Many ATMs across the region support purchases and sales of bitcoin cash, with the highest number in Malaysia that has nine devices, four of which have been installed in Kuala Lumpur.

Around the world with a jaundiced eye The Innocents Abroad is one of the great works of parody of the 19th Century, as well as a thoroughly modern comedic work. Backed by a newspaper, a relatively young (32) Twain joined one of the "Tours of the Holy Land" that were popular with the newly emergent middle class, and sent back regular reports to his paper that, on the surface, read like a typical travelogue. But Twain's acid pen and eye for hypocrisy and cant were in full force, as was his ability to parody subjects in a sly and clever manner. Go to Amazon

Irreverently Fascinating!! Sponsored by his publishers in 1867, Mark Twain takes a six month land/sea tour of the Mediterranean, the Black Sea and the Holy Land. The result is this informative and satirical account of the trip that covers France, Italy, the Crimea, the Holy Land, Egypt and other notable points along the way. The local "Chambers of Commerce" and the Catholic Church were probably not amused, but this reader absolutely was. From my limited experience, not a lot has changed over the ensuing 150 years. Go to Amazon

Twain's humor on world wide travels. Get out your atlas and your magnifying glass. Be prepared to be entertained. Interesting variation on Twain's normal humor. Get out your maps and your magnifying glass as he travels around 19th century Europe, the Med, and the Holy Land. You've heard of large print editions? This is a microscopic print edition...like 6 pt type, but I forgive it because the book is really cheap. Twain pulls no punches, does not suffer fools gladly. The contrast of many places with today's conditions in that part of the world is interesting. Of course some places and some people really haven't changed that much...I don't pull many punches either. Go to Amazon

You can enjoy it if you take it for what it is This is an entertaining view of an American "provincial" who goes abroad for the first time. All of us who travel can remember the surprises we experienced when we first ventured abroad. Twain takes a light hearted view. The writing is a bit stilted by modern standards. Also, Twain was a product of his time so one has to expect and try to overlook the racist, xenophobic and other limitations of his perspective. His characterizations of people in Africa, Europe and the Middle East are politically incorrect to the extreme by modern standards. You can enjoy it if you take it for what it is: a man in the 1860s who ventures abroad for the first time. Go to Amazon

Oldy but Goody Mark Twain's trip through the Mediterranean and Middle East was both informative and humorous. A reader needs to be tolerant of Twain's period bigotry, but it's amazing how little has changed for tourists to these areas. Guides still steer you to stores and businesses that surely provide commissions. The conflicts between religions at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher still occur often. Go to Amazon

Classic Mark Twain Wow. Basically a Mark Twain travel report (in that famously entertaining MT style of writing) for a six-month charter cruise from New York to the Mediterranean and the Holy Lands of the middle east. I enjoyed his take on some of the places we had experienced while on a cruise, 150 years later! Also, his attention to detail in describing what he saw and experienced is among the best I've ever read; wish I had that talent. Some things haven't changed much but we did not have to pack our own saddles and bring our own guns for the shore excursions on our cruise. Make sure to tune up your SDS (Sarcasm Detection System) and then enjoy! Recommended for anyone but especially for those who have taken cruises or tours of the areas he visited and wrote about. Go to Amazon

Yawn I feel like an idiot saying that a book by Mark Twain is boring or bad, but I just couldn't stay interested. To be fair, the style of writing from the 19th century was difficult to stick with. Also, I gave up on the book just as they got across the ocean to Gibraltar--still very much in the beginning of the story. It is not an easy read because of the old-fashioned style of writing, and because what was humorous then is not now. Sorry Mr. Clemmens. Go to Amazon

I think that it was his best selling book during his lifetime This product quality excellence, regardless of the cost, I am very happy to be able to buy such cheap things of beauty.beyond my a good book, very Fast delivery! Three Stars Five Stars Five Stars Mark Twain's View Abroad Five Stars Four Stars

New Post has been published on Found The World

New Post has been published on https://foundtheworld.com/the-alhambra-spain/

The Alhambra: An Arabic Fairytale in the Middle of Spain

Long-long time ago in Al-Andalus the remains of a Roman fortification were found. More than half a millennium before that a Berber commander led a force to what we now call ‘Europe’. It landed at the Gibraltar at the beginning of the 8th century. The Alhambra is a historical palace in Spain.

The Muslim occupation began. It invaded the territories of modern Spain, Portugal and southern France, at one point. Muslim Spain. Islamic Iberia. It was so until 1492, when the last Muslim bas-tion fell. Its name was Granada.

Not many people know these Spanish historical pages. Nevertheless, it was nearly a thousand year long story.

After the ancient Roman fortification had been discovered by the Muslims, it was turned into a pal-ace. After the Christian Reconquista The Alhambra became the Royal Court of Ferdinand and Isa-bella. This was the place where Christopher Columbus got the Queen’s permission to start his ex-pedition. The story of the Alhambra is impressive. It was later associated with numerous royalties, Napoleon and Northern Romanists. Its history is still being written.

A UNESCO’s World Heritage Site

Nowadays, it is Spain’s most famous monument of Islamic architecture. As well as later Christian building. No surprise that the Alhambra is a UNESCO’s World Heritage Site. Each year it attracts millions of tourists and never fails to inspire writers, artists and simple romantics.

But it is not only the palace that can be admired. The park around it deserves just as much time and attention. You can find different wildflowers, roses, oranges and myrtles there. Fountains, cas-cades, nightingales – these are the peaceful sounds of the wonderful garden. The Alhambra was extended throughout time by different rulers, but one thing remained untouched. The theme of the whole palace. ‘Paradise on earth’.

The Alhambra Location

It is located in Granada, Andalusia, Spain. Its name can be translated from Arabic as ‘the Red Castle’. It is a huge architectural ensemble that surely is worth visiting. The Alhambra is located on top of a hill. The experts highly recommend you to walk to the palace in order to enjoy the spec-tacular views. But you can always take a bus right to the ticket office or get there by car.

Tickets

It is important to note that the number of daily tickets is limited. That is why it is better to book a ticket in advance and online. The final entrance is one hour before the closing time. There are three types of tickets: morning, afternoon and night. The morning ticket is usually from 8.30 a.m. to 2 p.m., the evening – from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m.

You can also pay a night visit to the Nasrid Palaces or the Gardens and Palace of the Generalife, but it will last only for one and a half hours. If you have a morning ticket, you can not visit the pal-ace in the afternoon. And the other way round. So check all of the timing and remember that the opening hours differ in various seasons. Entrance to the Nasrid Palace has a strict time that is in-dicated on the ticket. Be sure to consult that. And, maybe, even manage your visit around that time. There is also a separate ticket only for a visit to the gardens.

The prices vary from 5 to 14 euros. Children get either a discount or a free admission. As well as senior citizens and pensioners from the European Union.

Some Useful Tourists Information

There is a parking, gift and bookshop, audio guides and plenty of information points. At the entrance you will be able to find a map with the itinerary of the visit. You might also like to have a look at the Alhambra Museum. It is dedicated to the Hispano-Muslim culture and art. Bare in mind that it is closed on Monday. But there are a few other museums worth visiting that you will find on the ter-ritory. Most of the admissions are free, some are only 1.50 euros.

Getting Married in December

Getting Married in December is very popular, for many reasons!

Summer, is usually busy, for all locations where destination weddings are popular, there are lots of tourists, it can be really hot, and travelling to an from locations can be expensive.

So you could flip the wedding norm and marry in the Winter... So what can we tell you about December weddings...

December in Denmark

Before we start, please can we just highlight that Denmark is a nordic country, in December it is cold, more than likely it will rain, there is every chance that it can snow. It is dark almost all day, with the sun rising late and setting early daylight hours are limited so when choosing your wedding time and your photographer please remember this.

However all these things can bring us to the most sensational wedding pictures and memories. Remember the Danish word 'Hygge' this is a word for being cosy, well in Denmark this is almost a sport, not just for people dressing, but for bars and restaurants and hotels alike, they excel in making things cosy. Be it roaring fires, big warm blankets, so you can still sit outside on the terrace, heat lamps. Big steaming frothy hot chocolates, mulled wine, hearty food that you can have either before or after you take a look around the Christmas markets, ice skate in the open air or simply walk through the towns and cities all 'hygged up'!

Christmas in Copenhagen is magical with Tivoli being just stunning, having "Gløgg" or "Gluwein" and snuggling up to your soul mate - heaven!

Image

December in Gibraltar

You can got to the beach, have lunch outside in the wonderful Catalan Bay, or explore the rock or have a coffee on casemates square out of the blazing Spanish sunshine.

So if its a sunshine wedding that you want but don't want the business or the heat of the Summer, Gibraltar is a perfect choice!
