Copenhagen - February 2013

A city break to liven up the winter months. We had only ever changed flights at the airport before, so this was our first proper visit to Denmark. It's a wonderful country, and we must go back.

A short walk from our hotel took us to Gammel Strand.		Nyhavn is lovely - great for John's love of boats.
Lots of boats in Nyhavn even in the winter.		We did tend to take refuge in a bar every now and again - this was a lovely one in Nyhavn.
A bridge between royal palces in Amalienborg Plads.		Well you can't visit Copenhagen without visiting her, can you?
The domes of the Alexandr Nevsky Church.		Bicycles near the main train station.
Bicycles are all over the place in Copenhagen.		A nice little carving in the pub not far from our hotel that we visited quite a few times - Søren's Værtshus. Very friendly and cosy.
Ah! Time for a nightcap. Back in the hotel after a long day being a tourist.		These people apparently give a blast on the horn when a virgin walks by. Apparently it's not heard very often ...
Another wonderful carving, this one in a bar (I think) where we went out to hear some live music.		Danish style in our hotel, Hotel Twentyseven. We thought it was great.

Yes it was cold in February - my camera battery didn't like it! - but the people were friendly, the food and drink were great, the city is beautiful. We'll be back sometime.
