... stalls; they sell fish there every day, and we had lunch at the coffeehouse in the Kungs Park (Kings Park.) We had ham sandwiches, apple cake, coffee, tea and kringla which was more like a cookie than the ones in Williams, which are more like a sweet bread. Came back to the room and took a nap, then we went to the apothecary for sunscreen and petroleum jelly for Patsy (her face has not ...

We slept in until 11:00am the next day where we sat around eating breakfast deciding where we should go today. Hmmm where should I spend my day in Sweden today. For breakfast it was very different then your normal bowl of cereal in the unites states. We had a type of bread that had a texture like pita bread. You butter it first then put sliced swiss cheese on it for a snack. We soon learned this is a very very very common food in Sweden. There are 6 aisles in the grocery ...

... photographer and so did the photos, and Cecilia's friends sung and played the violin. Three funny things happened during the wedding - only one of them was planned: 1 - Brian fumbled the wedding ring and dropped it 2 - It's Swedish custom to wear the engagement ring to the ceremony, then before you put your partners wedding ring on you take their engagement ring off and put it on their other hand. Brian had forgotten to loosen his engagement ring and Cecilia couldn't ...

... this shall be a common theme for my travels). Later that night I ran into Bobby, Fox &amp; crew and aside from ensuring a spot on their hotel room floor, I made us reservations to the local Ice Bar (I'll add pictures eventually). This place is such a tourist trap, yet it was awesome in its own right. We walked in and were suited up in Eskimo garb before entering the actual frosty ice palace. The entire bar, including dance floor, chairs, glasses, walls (etc ...

... items such as cars and planes. The engines were huge and funny to see the old cars and electric bicycles. Also seeing big machines and pumps. A Swede also invented ball bearings and you can see them at work in the museum. The best part was getting to go aboard a Swedish U-boat. It was so cramp and tight, but crazy to imagine that this boat used to be underwater and carry almost 30 men at once no cushion or comfort whatsoever. We headed up the stairs to the ...

... and have a photo with him, but not too close. We also got a photo of Dave in the same spot where he was 10 years ago, just to compare. After lunch we walked into an area called Christiania, back in its hay day you could buy Hash from a vendor on the street and it was considered normal, Back 10 years ago when Dave was here he said it was everywhere. See this area is a kind of hippy town, I have read that it even has its own mayor and is technically its ...

... and they had every right to demand that visitors abide by their rules of behaviour. Same as in my own home there are my rules of conduct. I took a walk around Christiania, said hello to the Ethiopian flags fluttering in the light wind at the small souvenirs and handicrafts market, and went back towards the exit. On the back side of that same wooden portal it was written "You are now entering the E.U." And so, having left the independent state of Christiania, I returned to Denmark.

... about Copenhagen and was determined to show me what a wonderful city it was. I accepted her invitation fully was keen to give Copenhagen a second chance. So that night the plan was to have dinner and a couple of drinks because Tina had to work the next day.Fair enough, I had a long day so was happy for a quite night. We went to this trendy Japanese restaurant where we eat like kings then on to this small but busy bar called The Moose which the cheapest place in town ...

... on the Contiki message boards, Stacey and Troy. Stacey was getting into Copenhagen today, and we had agreed to meet at 2:30 at the main entrance to the hostel. I told Kristy and David, and let them know that it wouldn't bother me if they didn't want to head back, but as we were all wet and cold, and weren't seeing much of Copenhagen anyways, the three of us headed back to the train station. By this time my umbrella was starting to fall apart. I was using the 10 Euro ...
