Sunshine in Copenhagen

It's not very common to have days upon days filled with sunshine. So, wouldn't you know...we would have sunshine for 4 straight days in Denmark. My parents probably think I was fibbing a bit about the gray skies and drizzly rain. However, I'll take any amount of sunshine we can get!
We had wonderful weather for our tour of southern Sweden and Denmark.
After our day in southern Sweden, we crossed the Oresund on a bridge / tunnel (below) then spent 2 days in Copenhagen. It was Easter weekend, so many things were closed or had reduced hours. We were able to find plenty of things to keep us busy!

Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark and is a bustling metro, a stark contrast to our little town in southern jutland. We were classic tourists...
  • riding the S and Metro
  • taking the hour-long canal tour
  • watching the changing of the guard at Amalienborg (royal palace)
  • Frederik's church
  • a view of the little mermaid before she travels to Shanghai, China
  • shopping on stroget street



Slideshow will be posted soon.
