Copenhagen!

We are now in Copenhagen, the most beautiful city in the world. It is really gorgeous here. It is surrounded by canals and ocean and has beautiful buildings and cobblestone streets. Our first hostel is very nice. It is very clean and in a great location.

Copenhagen is full of danish people! they speak danish! we do not. it is confusing! luckily, everyone we have met has spoken english as well. this country is full of talented people... who have silly letters like ø and æ.

We arrived late last night and found our way okay on the train from the airport. As we were flying over the countryside we saw bonfires everywhere from the plane! it is midsummer's night here so all the danes went to the country and lit large bonfires! they celebrate because it is light for about 18 hours of the day right now. crazy!

on the train we met a man who gave us some key tips and pointed us in the right direction. we got up early today and went to a few museums and saw a lot of stuff! all of the museums are closed tomorrow so we had to get it all in today. tomorrow we will go up the tower and explore more, and go to one of the many parks for a picnic. we may even partake in a tuborg or two!

the day after tomorrow we are training to stockholm, so although the visit in copenhagen is short we are both very glad that we came because the city rocks!

oh yeah, and i should note that dave decided not to meet us afterall so it is just the two of us here. silly dave, you are missing a fun time!

we are writing our blog from the irish pub around the corner from the hostel. random. therefore there are no pics from today or from before. hopefully we will find a kick ass computer in sweden.

cheers!
