We arrived uneventfully yesterday although we were both
tired as eating and sleeping had been so disrupted. I
expected to arrive at the airport and find it relatively quiet. I have never been in such a crowded and busy
airport. It was a change over day for the cruise ships and people were arriving
and leaving. It isn’t a big
airport and handling crowds was a problem.
We had bought Copenhagen Cards online and could use them to
get the train into the center of the city. It was a bit of awkward with our
luggage but we managed fine. The hotel
was right near the train station so we walked over. Lois was a real trooper and we did the walk on
her encouragement as I was prepared to get a taxi. I asked at the desk where we could get
traditional Danish food and they said the restaurant right across the street
was the best in town. I think Lois was a
little apprehensive but we had a wonderful meal – plain food, cooked really
well. It really hit the spot after
almost a day without a decent meal.
After supper we walked over to Tivoli and it still had the magic for me
that it had 45 years ago – lovely gardens, trillions of little coloured lights,
lots of entertainment and a multitude of restaurants. They seem to have added a few rides or a
least I didn’t remember them.
Today we did a Hop On-Hop Off tour although we didn’t hop
off a lot as we wanted to get our bearings. We also
did a canal cruise. So we accomplished our objective of getting our bearings.
