Copenhagen

Like usual, we ended up in Copenhagen because of a good flight deal.  =)  We were able to fly over on Friday morning and return on Saturday night so we only had one night of hotel cost too which is always nice.  Luckily all flights from England to Europe are pretty much around 2 hours so it wasn't too bad to do the one-night hop over. 


The weather was still a little cool, but we did get some nice sunshine on our harbour tour around the city which I thoroughly enjoyed!  It's been hard with it still being so cold and gray in England - this is when I miss Florida the most.  In addition to the harbour tour, we visited a church with a great rotunda you can climb (note, this is the first thing we've climbed that used ramps instead of stairs - they're both still evil and kill your legs by the time you get to the top!)  =)


With the exception of those two touristy things, we really just enjoyed hanging out in Copenhagen.  We ate picnic-style lunches on benches to people watch and just enjoyed the culture, particularly since Denmark was playing in the World Cup on Saturday.  It was so neat to see all of the festivities around the city - they set up these HUGE movie-style projection screens and have great parties with Carlsberg beer of course.  =)

Brian and I actually ended up at a Danish World Cup party.  It was funny watching a game where you didn't understand any of the commentary, but we still had a blast!  They ended up winning the night which we were happy about because we had a new affinity for Denmark after our wonderful trip.  Here are some pictures we hope you enjoy!
