Saga Copenhagen

... Great flavour, maybe a little thin.
Saison was a nice refreshing Belgian.

Saturday morning Glenn introduced me to his latest gastronomical find... Breakfast In A Can!!
Took the train into the city this time for a different view and managed to see Rosenborg Slot (castle), the musical instrument museum (which was awesome and free!), the Round Tower which was a long and winding walk up a seemingly endless ramp to the top, but the views once ...

... Boys started. In search of somewhere similar to the Rabbit Hole we went to the festival chill out lounge. It looked nice with warped lights, nice drinks, and a relaxed vibe. The only problem was the floor, it was made of sand (probably from the mine). We didn’t think our tent, clothes and bodies needed sand to go with all the dust so went in search of a blanket instead. We found one on the ground and put it down on the grass near a beer tent and just chilled ...

... having visited the disappointing Little Mermaid statue on the coast where Wayne took too long to take photos and the bus with me on it left him there so he had to wait for the next bus. Meanwhile I got off the bus next stop to wait for his bus. No matter next stop was a large water fountain and church. Copenhagen is very clean and ordered and must get very cold in winter as there are places where ice rinks are created out of ponds in parks. It is a very stylish city with a ...

... anyways, and since it is only a couple of hours, we decided that worse case scenario we would come back the same day on the train. Copenhagen is a beautiful place. It is set on the water, full of canals, buildings that are older than Australia... We has a great day, sunny and warm, and full of surprises. There are many squares and on one of the biggest they were setting up a very large stage. We saw a few 'gay' flags and didn't link what we saw with the lack of hotel ...

... of St. Peders church, and heard some beautiful jazz playing nearby, but I was too late to catch any of it. Danes are big Jazz connoisseurs, and the big Copenhagen jazz festival is taking place this week. Walking past the cathedral, I noticed three Spanish senoritas exiting - ahhh ... I'm glad the Spanish like traveling to Scandinavia ... Was starving so had an early dinner at Riz Raz, a place with a vegetarian buffet ...

... designer purses (and short skirts believe it or not) just strolling through the city on their bikes. It's really great. I guess that's why everyone here is so slim. It would be fantastic if our Canadian cities were like the Danish cities from that perspective. I also noticed windmills in the city, those that were built to generate energy. Another thing we should also do more of in Canada. There is a huge cemetery right by my hostel. Apparently it is a place of ...

... both locals and tourists. The street itself, as it is basically a street, is lined with many small bars and restaurants facing out to a picturesque harbour. In warmer weather, as it was on this evening, people fill every available table in the outdoors seating area in front of every restaurant. And they say that even in cooler weather the heartier types sit outdoors with a beer and a blanket, provided by the restaurant on each seat, over their legs. And they also say that ...

... was about to pop, but I laughed and was as giddy as ever. The long wait for the rollercoaster gave me time to recover. Ther rollercoaster was not amazing, but also did the trick very nicely. After that, I walked around and admired the park for a bit as I made my way to the big flying swing thing. Today I learned that I have somehow become afraid of heights. I was more or less freaking out as I dangled and swung round and round by myself in ...
