Copenhagen

With our lunch at Noma under our belt we had some time to explore the rest of Copenhagen.

With the exception of Laney we’d all been to Copenhagen before. Laney didn’t have anything in particular that she wanted to do except to visit the free neighbourhood of Christianshavn. We’d actually gone for a walk in that neighbourhood just before Noma, since that is near where Noma is located. It’s really different in the morning to what it is later in the afternoon and night – people were just waking up. The best thing about our morning walk though the area were the dogs. Saw some really cute French bulldogs and pitbulls I could have happily dog-napped! Ha ha. Shame we couldn’t take any photos of the cute little critters.

Most of the rest of the weekend we spent walking around popular districts like Strøget, the pedestrian mall for shopping, where I loved seeing this politically diverse shop window …

… and Nyhavn and the area Amalienborg Palace. Interestingly both Su Yin and I still had an appetite for hot dogs …

For most of the weekend it was fair weather too so we also did a cruise and hit Tivoli to release our inner child.

At Tivoli we saw the cutest little tike. His fairy floss was bigger than he was! (Don’t worry – I asked his Dad if I could take a photo of him!)

We had the funniest pilot on our flight back to London – he asked us to applaud at end of safety brief before he would take off as a sign that we were listening. Even the air steward called him The Mad Captain!
