we are in copenhagen. there is not really that much to say. We have seen the sights. we rode the rides. we took a canal cruise. The place is beautiful and wonderful just like all the other sights we have seen.
BUT they do have an amusment park in the middle of the city which is a few blocks away from our high-rise hostel (very posh). The amusment park is called Tivoli and these crazy people who live here keep it open all year long even when its sleeting. Luckily though, when we went it wasn't raining that bad. We rode on this scary swing ride that went way high up into the sky while swinging us around. and... three roller coasters. one hammer like ride. a couple of kiddy rides for me. one hans christian anderson ¨small world¨ like ride. a log roll that featured moles. It was fun and magical. Everything had lights and decorations and in the night the place just glowed with excitment and enchantment.
One thing that is clear to me. These europeans love christmas.
markable thing - we went to the hippie compound christiania. it was muddy, interesting, and filled with cops.
food note - there are lots of buffets here. we have eaten at two medditeranian buffets and a pizza buffet. local cuisine is good.
Onto amsterdam this afternoon and we will arrive there tomorrow at six am.
ooh. for jessica. we saw the mermaid. from a boat. much easier.
