COPENHAGEN, DENMARK

On the bus ride to Copenhagen you get to jump on a ferry boat and enjoy the beautiful water.
On our walk of the city Allan and Jen took us to these grounds that are military training grounds and when they are not in use they are open to the public.
A picture of the Copenhagen port with windmills in the background.
The Mermaid Statue, Copenhagen was home to Hans Christian Anderson, and this statue is a major landmark in the city.
Jen, Allan, and David in the courtyard of the Queen's main home. The home is protected by the guards, but the yard is open to the public, her house in directly behind them in the picture.
This neat street runs along the canal and there are ships docked along in the water--it was a relaxing and fun atmosphere to sit at a cafe or bar and catch up with dear friends.
The striking new opera house that was recently built. It is very different from almost every single building in Copenhagen, because all of the other buildings...ARE OLD!
Our AMAZING friends in their beautiful and charming new apartment.


We have just returned from a wonderful weekend visiting Jen (one of my roommates from college) and Allan (her boyfriend) in Copenhagen, Denmark. We feel so lucky to have such fantastic friends who treated us to a perfect time in their city.

We were able to see the sights, relax in their wonderful apartment, experience Danish culture, and walk through the beautiful streets in the sunny autumn weather that we were blessed to have the entire weekend!

It was just a 6 hour bus ride from Hamburg and now we are home ready to begin another busy week bright and early tomorrow morning.
