Copenhagen

The trip to Copenhagen this weekend was so much fun! The boat left Oslo at 4:15 pm and the forecast for our trip was sunny. As I stated in my last post the boat trip took 18 hours one way. This meant that we would be in Copenhagen about 10 am. So we had a lot of time to spare before this, so we went to the tax-free to have a look what we could find. Something that was much cheaper then in Norway was both the beer, cider and the strong alcohol, at the same time the whine and the champagne was almost the same price as if you would have bought it from Norway. 

The next day at 9:45 am we arrived in Copenhagen and left the boat for 7 hours. We walked to the centre though there was a possibility to take the bus for free. But this wasn't a bad decision in my opinion, the sun was shining and it was pretty warm. So we took the route that went beside the water, and because of this we saw a lot of beautiful statues and buildings. We also saw the little mermaid but it was a challenge to get a good picture of me and the little mermaid in the picture because there where so much tourists climbing on it. Our next stop was at the canalboats we wanted to go but before that we needed to eat something. We were all really hungry and I was starting to get grumpy, so we went to the nearest McDonalds because the other food places didn't serve food at that time. When we were full and happy from the burgers, we then went back to the canalboats and took a one hour trip around Copenhagen, which was a nice thing and a possibility to see the city from a different perspective. After the canalboat sightseeing we just walked around and enjoyed the nice weather. At 3:30 pm we went back to the boat but this time we took the bus because we had all walked so much that nobody was in the mood to do it anymore. We came back to Oslo monday morning at 10. It was one of the nicest trips in a while with a lot of nice people and good memories! I recommend everyone to visit Copenhagen a really beautiful city.
