We woke up a bit late this morning, though not tragically so. Last night was a bit rainy and windy so we were not suprised to see some twigs on the windowsill. Turns out it was not the wind, but a bird trying to build a nest on top of the window.
We started the morning at a vegetarian sandwich shop and juice bar near Rosenborg Castle. Most importantly they had coffee. We ate our sandwiches in the park and then traipsed about the castle and the grounds.
Rule number one - don't fall in the moat.
The room had many mirrors.
We then took a stroll to Amalienborg Castle.
The museum is one of four parts of the palace. One of the other buildings still serves as the royal residence. The queen was home, but alas we were not invited over.
We followed the canal for a while which seems like the thing to do round these parts.
We ended up by the little mermaid. It was funny watching the crowd and this one guy who was pretty rude ended up in the water.
Next we got ice cream and looked at boats.
We also visited a fort on an island that is shaped like a star. The buildings were red and the sky was a clear, bright blue.
Copenhagen has a lot of canals. It is hard not to end up with many pictures on bridges.
Next we hopped the water bus over to Nyhavn. I saw a great tiny glass house.
For our evening meal we went to Cohenhagen Street Food on Paper Island. We felt very hip.
Ellie had lemonade with fennel in it. I had beer with beer in it. The food was great. We considered trying even more, but figured we were full enough.
And so ends our time in Copenhagen. Tomorrow we catch the 7:35 train to Berlin via Hamburg.
