They will try to change that with their visit to the Spanish capital, where they experience flamenco dancing up close, swing the scissors at a cape tailor, and avoid the city's largest museums in order instead to get acquainted with the painter Joaquin Sorolla, Spain's answer to the Danish Skagen painter, Krøyer.

   2 years ago

   The women of the world are on the West Coast. They are out of their "new-yorker outfits" and in a pair of waders, and then they are on the hunt for oysters. But Lotte can't help but lick the fat oysters, even though it's algae season. They meet the past as war children in the bunker museum at Blåvand, and discuss what to do about the horrific bunkers today. They experience architecture that everyone must see, and then they go to idyllic Fanø, where they find priceless treasures in the second-hand shop.

And then they get to taste a royal home brew that really breaks through.
