Sun, Jun 7 Copenhagen

We woke up about 3 am blah blah I finally went back to sleep at 7 am - not good.

Anyway, got a late start.
Took the train to Central Station, while there we bought a 10 ride tix. Very convenient! It can be used by more than 1 person at a time, you just stamp your tix for as many people are using it.

We had info to take a walking tour. We grab lunch which was chicken sandwich w/ a curry sauce. It was weird, I didn't hate it but I'm not a big curry fan. The good part is we had a chocolate croissant too.
We started our walking tour at City Hall.


Next to City Hall is Hans Christian Anderson status.


We walked down the Storget which is a shopping/eating street.

Gammeltorv (Old Square) features this crazy fountain:
The Caritas Well, I told you it was crazy - lady w/ water comes out her boobs & little boy peeing. It symbolizes the greatest theological virtue, love or charity. Okay, if you say so....

Strolled down to picturesque Kongens Nytorv. It use to be seedy, cuz this is where the sailors use to hang out. Now it's filled with cafes where you can freeze your butt off (it was upper 50s) and have something to drink and/or eat. At least they supply blankets. It started to rain while we were here but mostly it was business as usual with people sitting under umbrellas wrapped in blankets.


We went to church at 6 pm - wooden kneelers!?!? oh my gosh I took a pic of the church because it's just not where I expected it.

Ate a late dinner at the Hard Rock and bought a pin. Back to the hotel @ 10. It sounds late but it stays light here longer.
