En tur i regnbuen / A walk in the rainbow

I går var jeg en tur i Århus for at besøge min ældste niece. Hun har boet der i nogle år efterhånden, men et "rigtigt" besøg blev det først til nu, selv om vi har talt om det mange gange.
Udover at besøge hende, ville jeg mægtig gerne en tur i "Regnbuen" ovenpå Aros. Den fylder jo en del, sådan en regnbue, og det er bestemt ikke alle, der er begejstrede for den store kolos. Deriblandt niecen. Hun går på musikkonservatoriet, der er nabo til Aros, og har kigget på den under hele byggeriet.
Som bonus er hendes bror også flyttet til Århus, så han var også med. Dobbelt så godt!

Yesterday I went to Århus to visit my oldest niece. She has been living there for some years now, and I've been to Århus for meetings, courses and such, but it was only yesterday, she had a "real" visit, although we talked about it several times.
Apart from visiting her, I would love a walk in the "Rainbow" on top of Aros. It's quite big, as you can see, and not everybody loves it. Among those my niece. She is studying at the academy of music, right next to Aros, and has watched the making of the Rainbow.
As a bonus, her brother moved to Århus too and came along. Twice as good!
Det er meget specielt at gå rundt inde i regnbuen. Mest, fordi man godt kan se, at det er farvet, men man lægger faktisk ikke mærke til hvor meget, før man kommer ned og ser billederne!

It's very weird walking inside the rainbow. You can see the coloring, but you don't really notice the extent of it before you come out and watch the pictures on the camera!

Den tynde, "blå" linje er et mellemrum mellem glassene, og den "rigtige" farve.

The thin, "blue" line is a small interval between the 2 pieces of glass, and the "real" color.

Her kan man jo godt se skiftet fra orange til pink! Sjovt nok virkede pink "rigtigt", indtil vi opdagede, at de hvide biler var svagt lyserøde........

Here you can see the change from orange to pink! Actually pink seemed like the "true" color, until we noticed how the white cars were slightly pink.....

Det her ser helt vildt og dramatisk ud med farverne, ikke? Niecen var meget stolt over sine fotografiske evner.....
Alt i alt var det virkelig en oplevelse at komme rundt deroppe, og kommer du nogensinde forbi, skulle du prøve. Det mærkeligste var godt nok først at gå deroppe og tænke "det ser da ikke særligt farvet ud!" og bagefter komme ned i dagslys og se på billederne, hvor meget farve der faktisk var!
Og niecen? Hun er fan af regnbuen nu....

This picture looks very dramatic with all the colors, don't you think? My niece was very proud of her photographic abilities......
It was an amazing thing walking around up there, and if you happen to visit Århus, you should try. The weirdest part was to walk around up there, thinking "the colors don't look that extreme, really!" and then look at the pictures in daylight, seeing how much color it actually had!
And my niece? She is a fan of the rainbow now......
