      154ème étape ~ (re) Copenhague

      January 3, 2023 in Denmark ⋅ ⛅ 5 °C

      Retour à Copenhague pour les derniers moments partagés avec Dono.
      Nous allons visiter le musée des records du monde. C’était vraiment sympa, il est assez interactif !
      Nous avons pu expérimenter certains records, nous sommes loin de les battre 😅
      Puis nous buvons un dernier verre en terrasse et nous déposons Dono à l’aéroport.      Read more

      Hallo kleine Meerjungfrau

      June 10, 2023 in Denmark ⋅ 🌬 19 °C

      Wir sind zurück von unserer eintägigen Blogauszeit und bald auch zurück in Deutschland! Unser letzter Stopp vor der Heimat ist Kopenhagen. Gestern haben wir uns in Schweden an unterschiedlichen Orten um unsere zukünftigen Studiwohnungen gekümmert und sind heute dann gemeinsam von Göteborg (Uppsala) aus in die dänische Hauptstadt gefahren. Nach der Überquerung der Öresundbrücke waren wir am frühen Nachmittag dann da. Und an diesem schönen Junisamstag auch längst nicht die einzigen in Kopenhagen. Es war mega viel los und wir sind geradezu von einem Jungesell(innen) Abschied zum nächsten gekommen. Rund um den bekannten und hübsch bunten Nyhavn waren natürlich die meisten Leute unterwegs. Ein wenig später wollten wir uns eigentlich in der Pizzeria Leo eine Pizza holen, aber weil das zu lange gedauert hätte, haben wir uns stattdessen für ein leckeres Gemüse Panini entschieden und das im Rosenborg Schlosspark gegessen. Zum Abschluss des Tages sind wir noch am Wasser entlang zur kleinen Meerjungfrau spaziert, die eigentlich recht unscheinbar im Wasser hockt, aber trotzdem noch viele Leute anlockt. Da es relativ windig wurde, haben wir uns auf den Weg zurück zum Hostel gemacht während die Abendsonne die Stadt in tolles Licht taucht. Nun steht noch ein Tag in Kopenhagen an, bevor es zurück nach Deutschland geht (und wir endlich wieder an richtiges Brot, Brezeln, Räuchertofu und Katjes kommen)... :)Read more

      Seejungfrau und Soldaten

      September 7, 2019 in Denmark ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

      Bei der weiteren Zugfahrt durchkreuzen wir unser geliebtes Heimatland 🙂 nochmal und kommen am frühen Morgen in Kopenhagen an.
      Dass wir einige hundert Kilometer zurückgelegt und das Land gewechselt haben merken wir kaum.
      Hier ist vieles ähnlich wie in den Niederlanden.
      So gibt es viele Radfahrer und eine entsprechende Infrastruktur und jede Menge Wasser. Die Menschen sind freundlich und sogar die Sprache scheint uns ähnlich. Nur das Wetter ist heute besser.
      Zunächst wandern wir vorbei an den königlichen Gebäuden zur kleinen Meerjungfrau, die am Morgen noch nicht von all zuvielen Touristen umlagert wird. Weiter geht es am Wasser entlang und wir stoßen auf ein Marketingevent der dänischen Marine.
      Wir lassen uns die Möglichkeit Kriegsschiffe und Militärfahrzeuge von innen anzusehen nicht entgehen. Allerdings hinterlässt das Arsenal von Tötungsmaschinen eher gemischte Gefühle bei uns wobei das Personal sehr nett ist.
      Auf dem Weg zurück zum Bahnhof sehen wir noch mehr schöne Bauten und Wasserwege, entdecken Bademöglichkeiten und Fitness Anlagen.
      Kopenhagen vermittelt eine entspannte, positive Atmosphäre und wird uns in guter Erinnerung bleiben.
      Am Nachmittag fahren wir über den Öresund weiter nach Schweden.      Read more

      The Return to Denmark aka The Clean Up

      July 25, 2023 in Denmark ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C

      92km 🚗 & 🇸🇪 🚢 🇩🇰

      A practical domestic / auto day: Taking apart my car camping equipment and dropping it off in various places en route to Copenhagen 🇩🇰

      It felt a bit undercover as there were several places I "made a drop" as if trying to make it tricky to track me ... 🕵️‍♀️

      Not to mention negotiations with Danish petrol stations - you have to put your bank card in first and tell them how many liters you wish to purchase. If you end up purchasing less they refund the difference. This was not written anywhere and the party at the pump cycled through the information too quickly for my Google translate 🫣

      Ended up having to find a second petrol station as the first one was waiting on replacement parts for their car wash 🙄

      A drink on the rooftop bar was a great way to relax into the evening before joining other travelers for the hostel taco night: 2x Sweden, 1x France, 1x Germany and 2x Australia, 1x NZ. I was the oldest by a good 20yrs 😆      Read more

      Copen-HEY-gen

      September 14, 2023 in Denmark ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

      Today we awoke to the sounds of construction under our level on the ferry, but thankfully the top bunk didn't collapse. We pulled ourselves out of bed and enjoyed an all you can eat breakfast, where Phill singlehandedly ate more danish pastries then there are Danish citizens.

      After debarkation, we started exploring immediately, our first stop Kastellet - a star shaped 17th century fortress with ramparts and a museum. After getting distracted with some other sites we then made it to Amalienborg, which is made up of four identical rococo buildings that have made up the royal Family's residence since 1794. At this time we'd been hiking around with our packs on for 4 hours and we were ready for a break, so we headed to our hostel and dropped the bags in a locker before heading to a walking tour. Politically incorrect walking tours was the name of the walk, and it was 1.5 hours of our tour guide Thor (his name translated to English was Thors hammer shaft) explaining sites and the history while dissing every other country he could.

      After the tour we headed to finally check on to our hostel. Tonight is another shared bunk room, so hopefully our roomies are more pleasant then our previous experience.

      We had a pizza buffet for dinner, then went to the in-house bar for a pub quiz, where we didn't do amazingly thanks to the US based questions.

      We finished the night off with a late night walk to finally hit 30k steps.

      Royal flush

      September 15, 2023 in Denmark ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

      Today started off with an iced coffee and a venture around Rosenborg Castle, one of the most well preserved Renaissance castles in the world, it was built in 1606 and was absolutely stunning - definitely lifted our expectations for our future residence. Down below the castle in the basement it contained many treasures and the impressive crown jewels and historical weapons of Denmark which were on display.

      We then headed to The Round Tower (Rundetaarn) which is a 17th century tower that boasted some nice views from the top, and what was more impressive was that it had a equestrian staircase - which is just a slope rather than stairs.

      After looking at the tops of houses, we had a roll and some stolen Nutella for lunch while we battle planned our next move.

      The travel card we purchased to give us free entry to all the attractions also gave us entry to Guinness World Records Museum, which we thought would be a nice palette cleanser from all the old history we'd seen so far.

      After seeing some current history facts, we decided to head to another castle. This time we ventured to Christiansborg Palace, and the first stop here was checking out the ruins under the castle of what remained from the previous 2 castles (both burnt down?) We also checked out the royal stables, the royal kitchen and the Royal Representation Rooms (which are still used by the royal family) where we had to don some fancy shoe coverings.

      After looking at more old things we got peckish and had a national Danish dish - the Smørrebrød, which is just an open faced sandwich on rye bread. Phill has been rating national foods we try so maybe at the end of each country we'll have a section at the bottom with his ⭐ ratings.

      Also included on our city card was an hour ferry tour of Copenhagen, so we jumped on a boat and saw all the sites. Including the famous little mermaid statue. Apparently the writer of the book H.C Anderson is Denmarks most famous citizen, so they love to reference mermaids.

      The sun had started to set by this time and it was getting cold, so we headed back to the hostel to get our jackets before we headed out for our nighttime stroll and snack.

      Tonights snack was expensive disappointing chips and churros with white chocolate, Oreos and ice cream.

      Last day in Denmark tomorrow!

      Interlude II - Goodbye Scandinavia

      September 16, 2023 in Denmark ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

      Our final day in Denmark started with a breakfast buffet, we then packed up our hostel pods and realized we didn't have many clean socks left and decided to do some laundry. While our clothes were washing we headed to the Lego store to browse some overpriced colourful plastic.

      Once our clothes were clean and dry we headed for a day of carnival fun at the 19th century amusement park: Tivoli Gardens.
      The first ride we partook was the 63m golden Tower, which was just a ride to the top to drop straight down - with the adrenaline pumping we knocked out some other rides, including a looptoloop rollercoaster and a 80m high carousel.

      As a post adrenaline snack we enjoyed a fairy floss icecream burrito... it was as strange and messy as it sounds.

      Once we had enough of the crotch goblins running around and fun we headed to another free activity, Ripley's believe it or not! And the attached H.C Anderson Experience. This was a fun way to pass the time.

      We gathered some snacks for dinner and headed back to the hostel to eat and enjoy some free beer.

      We went for another walk before preparing to catch our 9:55pm bus which will take us overnight with an arrival to Berlin at 7am tomorrow.

      Seeya in Berlin!

      Velostadt
      In welcher Kleidung hier Velo gefahren wird... Männer im Anzug mit Kravatte und blank geputzten Schuhen...Frauen in langen Kleidern, die sich bei mir in der Kette verheddern würden...FlipFlops oder Highheels, mit denen ich noch nicht mal von der Küche bis zum Bad laufen könnte🙈 Und alle ohne Helm. Am Helm erkennen sie vermutlich die Touristen, die das Radwegsystem nicht begreifen. Ich gebe zu, mancherorts bin ich überfordert. Obwohl sogar auf dem Stadtplan die 3 wichtigen Handzeichen erklärt sind: Rechts/Links ist ja klar...aber wenn du mal kurz anhalten willst...uuuunbedingt eine Hand hochheben...nach wütendem Geklingel und Geschimpfe habe auch ich es begriffen🙋‍♀️

      Touristenstadt
      Die Flaniermeile Nyhavn ist wirklich hübsch, aber auch wirklich voll...die Shoppingmeile endlos, aber auch endlos voll...die kleine Meerjungfrau ist wirklich klein und wird im Minutentakt von Reisebussen angefahren😆

      EasyLivingStadt
      ...im Hafenbecken ist ein Pool eingerichtet...sünnele tut man überall, wo es möglich ist...👙
      ...in der Freistadt Christiania wohnt man schön bunt und hat einen eigenen "Cannabis-Markt". Fotografieren verboten😉 Vor der "Sunshine-Bakery" hat unser Strassenhund blitzschnell das am Boden liegende Guetzli entdeckt und gefressen. Ich hoffe, es war kein Hasch-Guetzli...naja...noch irrer kann sie eh nicht werden🤣

      Und ja...wir haben auch die schönen Gebäude, die Kirchen, die Wachablösung, die Gärten und Schlösser von Kopenhagen gesehen. Bilder hierzu findet ihr zuhauf im Internet...😉(Anke)      Read more

      Day 10 🇩🇰

      July 30, 2022 in Denmark ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C

      Goodmorning from Copenhagen!
      We got to Stamos’s at about 4:30 in the morning. Had a shower and fell asleep till 10:00. Then we got up, Stamos made us breakfast (bacon and eggs!) and then he had some work to do in his office so we walked around the zoo. Copenhagen Zoo is a beautiful park with animals we haven’t seen before (pandas, polar bears!) and lot’s of small shops you can eat and drink from. We walked around for a couple of hours so Stamos could get some work done, and enjoyed the lovely day and the animals. After a while, he called me so we could meat at the Panda’s house🐼. He came all dressed up in his uniform and was talking on his walkie talkie. He then took us in to the pandas and we met the male panda Xian Air. He was eating bamboo and had his back turned on us, but we were allowed to pet his back! Who can say they’ve petted a panda??
      His fur was super soft and clean, and he was super cute too. We sat a bit there with his care keeper and then went along. We also went into the female’s house, Mao Sun, but she wasn’t interested in seeing us. Then we went to see the tiger 🐯 he was new to the zoo and very shy, but also super massive! They take turns with the female tiger who’s going to be outside and who’s going to be in the stable. They don’t have the best relationships yet, but hopefully they’ll get there!
      Then another zookeeper (I don’t remember his name but Stamos calls him egg master😂) took us to see the flamingoes and explained to us how they manage to help the flamingoes hatch eggs and actually keep them and not abandon them. This time they had loads of baby flamingoes around and more that were hatching, which is a big win for the zoo and the zookeeper since they’re his passion. After that we decided to sit and eat something small since we were all getting hungry, so we decided on a Mexican stall with tacos and nachos. They were super tasty and just enough for us to continue on our expedition around the zoo. Then we went and got some churros, walked back to Stamos’s office to have coffees and sit for a little bit before going back out again! ❤️      Read more
