Quality Hotel Hoje Taastrup

We spent another day exploring in Copenhagen, visiting the ´free town´ of Christiania, which was formed by some squatters in an old army barracks in the 1970´s. If you try to take pictures they will smash the camera but it is a hippie area - graffiti and all- best for underground rock bands and vegan food - just hop off at the metro stop Christianshavn and you are there... unlike anything else in Denmark and a must see for any tourists. If you are ...

... each day - I can now order my food in Danish, do my shopping, let people know if I am not feeling very well and can have a conversation about where they come from and that sort of thing. IMPRESSIVE for only 2 weeks I think (if I do say so myself). The best bit is my friends are teaching me German and also Italian as well - it so much fun to pick up little bits of their languages- although my head does not know where to put all this new language. I went ...

... checked in with no hassles, comforted my anxious parents and departed on our flight to Brunei at 1140hrs. We had a long flight in store for us from Perth-Brunei-Dubai-London, and then in my case another flight from London to Copenhagen. The flight from Perth to Brunei was pretty fun despite the fact that it was 8 hours long because Kathy and I met another Perth girl, Dani who was going to London and Israel, and we spent the flight playing ...

... We had dinner at Julies mums house, and I was so excited cause she made us a Sunday roast beef! My first roast in 4 and a half months. It was so good. My mouth is watering now just thinking of it. I also got to meet Julie's sister, and was majorly surprised to see that they had a budgie!! I got the full family dose yesterday. It was a really nice change. Today I head back on the bus to Berlin, but as I don't leave till later this avo we went ...

... löser jeg det undervejs. Nu skal jeg til Fredagsrock i Tivol, der er jo ingen grund til at väre lysvaagen paa flyturen og desuden skal jeg hurtigst muligt vänne mig til Mexico tid. Jeg vil forsöge at holde bloggen opdateret, saa I kan fölge med, men billeder kan jeg desvärre ikke love för de to andre stöder til min rejse. Hold jer munter!

... also conclude that Kalmar is the Swedish equivalent of Toledo on the "Hottie Hotel Receptionist" scale. This place gets 10 senoritas out of 10! Hopefully Odeta and Eva's parents did mankind a favour and had 20 daughters. Holy gene pool, Batman! Some of these small European towns are intriguing - for a town of 60,000, Kalmar sure has a high percentage of beautiful women walking around. I remember Carcassonne, with its multitude ...

... my sleeping position. It startled him for half a second but the snoring really never ended. I think my attempt was recognized by a few though. So I decided to go to bed early tonight to see if I could get into a deep sleep before the Killer Snorer dozed off but he was actually already in bed before me. I tried sleeping for 1.5 hr and decided to give up and write this update instead. I did bond with the other people who were trying to sleep. We were joking about ...

... and useless information that I find my attention waning to the point that I've forgotten what it is that we were talking about in the first place, but luckily for me, he rambles on to such an extent that I have ample time to catch myself up before I am expected to respond. He also ends all of his sentences with "um" so that I never know if he is finished or not, so many silences are spawned from this. By nightfall, I ...

... but this guy would have smacked his chin if he stood up straight! Anyway... We spotted a bakery and thought, while in Denmark, one must eat a Danish. Best Danish Ever. Hands down. No contest. A thousand times better than any other Danish we've ever had. I can't repeat just how good this Danish was. Crisp, flakey pastry, light sweet frosting, and a rich berry centre. mmmmmm. So we continued on and attacked the castle. It took us awhile to find a gate in, but ...

... were on our way to Singapore, and though we had a long flight ahead of us, I knew we would be just fine. It's amazing how relaxed you get, when you have your own screen and remote to control whatever you want to see on such a long flight! I recommend all airlines start doing that, even on short flights!!
