    Top 5 Attractions:

    2. Rosenborg Castle
    3. Glyptoteket
    4. Carlsberg Museum
    5. Cycling around the city (the city in general is just so nice)

    Final thoughts/observations:
    * Lots of bikes! Bike stands are just every where you walk but the city has catered for the bikes so there’s separate cycling lanes and spaces to put your bikes
    * Danishes here are a bit different to Australia. Most of them don’t have custard and fruit and again marzipan is very popular here
    * No one checks public transport tickets
    * Seems like the Carlsberg family basically funded the whole of Copenhagen which was very interesting to learn
    * There seems to be no “anti-monarchy” tendencies. Everyone seems like they adore the royal family and show a lot of support
    * Back in the day the Danes ruled over all the Nordics for a while so no wonder why they had such amazing and lavish castles
    * We found it quite impressive seeing most women in long coats and heels riding their bikes so well. They make it look so easy
    * There wasn’t any drinking in public laws so we noticed that we saw heaps of people walking around with beers and it seems like the Danes live a drink on the street if it’s not raining
    * Iesha doesn’t know know if Danish blue cheese is a gimmick because she struggled to find any in the grocery stores! Maybe we were supposed to go to a specialist cheese store but she was a bit disappointed it wasn’t such a big thing
