Dag 2
Little Mermaid and Fortress
25. januar 2019, Danmark ⋅ ☁️ -2 °C
Firstly, it was flipping cold today and was snowing for a bit. Not enough for a snowman though. Wanted to see a lot of the sights today.

First stop on my busy sightseeing day was the famous but famously disappointing little mermaid statue. It rounds out me visiting the top 3 most disappointing sight in the world according to Japanese people.

Then went into the fortress which is still used by the military apparently, also has a military windmill protected by cannons that you're not allowed to touch.Læs mere

Nyhavn
25. januar 2019, Danmark ⋅ ⛅ -2 °C
Next was Nyhavn which is the famous canal with colourful houses either side. It's a pretty place and was quiet at that time of morning. I also stopped taking pictures of myself after this place.

Then walked over to the royal palace...Læs mere

25. januar 2019, Danmark ⋅ ☁️ -2 °C
Visited the palace next which was all snowy. First stop was the ruins under the palace of all the previous castles and palaces. It was cool to see the different layers built in to of each other, and logs being used as pipes, with metal bits passing the water between the logs.Læs mere

Christiansborg Palace Reception rooms
25. januar 2019, Danmark ⋅ ⛅ -2 °C
Then went into the fancy rooms of the palace that the queen uses when entertaining.

Got to learn more about their history including one king who went crazy, his physician took control, also took his wife, had a child, then got booted out, but the child then had a child who ended up marrying a later king. Nuts.

Highlight was the Great hall and the really cool tapestries that go through the history of Denmark.

Also climbed a tower because I like being high.Læs mere

Round Tower and food
25. januar 2019, Danmark ⋅ ☁️ -2 °C
Then I went up another tower, a round tower with a 'staircase' for horses, so they can enjoy the view too.
Also a working observatory (closed).

Then headed back to Nyhavn to grab some food and a strawberry hot chocolate. I'm not one for hot drinks but my hands needed warming up.Læs mere

Opera!
25. januar 2019, Danmark ⋅ ☁️ -2 °C
Was considering relaxing in the evening but felt like I should do something, so I went to the opera to watch Turandot. It was in Italian, with Danish subtitles, so I had to read the storyline before hand.

It was good, enjoyed it... the ending though... It didn't follow the Wikipedia ending. It ended with lots of people killing themselves that shouldn't have and then a flipping unicorn walking on stage and then the curtain fell... I have no idea...Læs mere

National Museum
26. januar 2019, Danmark ⋅ ❄️ 0 °C
Woke up today to more snow, it looked very pretty walking around the centre.

Headed to the National museum to learn more about the Danish. There was lots there and could have probably spend all day.

Learnt about the journey of the sun from the fish to the morning ship and the sun horse over to the afternoon ship and the snake through the underworld. All goes on around the flat earth we live on. Someone must have made all that up at some point.

Was also interesting reading about things happening like farming, the Greeks, Romans, there were others too. All it said was this happened elsewhere in Europe, Denmark didn't.Læs mere

Rosenborg Castle
26. januar 2019, Danmark ⋅ ❄️ 0 °C
Next was Rosenborg castle which was very cool in the snow. The inside wasn't really in my style, if I was going to live in a castle, I wouldn't decorate it like they did. Top floor was good though, one big room pretty much, that was really nice.Læs mere

Treasury
26. januar 2019, Danmark ⋅ ❄️ 0 °C
The main reason for visiting Rosenborg was to see the treasury including the crowns.

The crowns were very cool and shiny. I preferred the older crown, if I was going to wear one in my castle. There were lots more jewels and gold but my favourite was the ship. It was made from ivory (I know boo!) and silver, but it was a ship and it had so much detail. I want it.Læs mere

Helsingør
27. januar 2019, Danmark ⋅ ❄️ 1 °C
Travelled to Helsingør today to see a couple of things. Was a bit windy near the sea and it was sleeting.

They have their own shiny and manly little mermaid, also a fish made from rubbish found in the sea I guess.Læs mere
