• Stockholm to Copenhagen

    May 16 in Denmark ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C

    We were up at 6 am this morning and down for an early breakfast before meeting at 8.15 to walk around the corner to the Stockholm central train station. We boarded our train to Copenhagen about 9.30 am and settled in for the ride down Sweden and across the Oresund bridge to Denmark. The bridge is an 8km suspension bridge whch then descends to an artificial island and under the sea for a further 4 kilometres. The toll to drive over the bridge is $115 so you probably wouldn't pop over for dinner.
    Copenhagen sits on the coastal islands of Zealand & Amager and is consistently ranked as one of the happiest cities in the world. It would appear that there is a direct correlation between happiness and the number of bars.
    On arriving in Copenhagen we were met and taken to a restaurant for a late lunch which was an entree of Herring and a huge main course of pork that we all struggled to finish.
    After checking in to our hotel we walked up to the centre of the city passing all of the bars with people being happy in the sunshine. It has got considerably warmer as we have traveled further south.
    We finished the evening with a drink in the hotel bar and called it a day.
