Copenhagen Day 1, part 2

After our treats we headed on and really wandered the city spying on all the food places I had marked on my map and seeing what we saw along the way. We went by Christiansborg Palace which was pretty nice, then over to Tivoli amusement park as I had a patisserie listed that had vegan treats, but it was inside the park where you needed a ticket! So I was sad about that…until we walked on a little farther and found a storefront on the street! And got a raspberry yuzu pistachio cake which was amazing! I love yuzu and it really enhanced the raspberry and pistachio. We may have to go back and get another one tomorrow!

After that we went by the Rathaus and I realized I remembered that from our first trip over to Europe before we lived here, but I thought it was in Hamburg! I even vaguely remember going to Hamburg after we moved over here and being like where is that one building with all the fun little statues on the side?? And now it makes sense - it was here not there!

We got some treats at another cafe - a chocolate mousse cake which we tried a bite and it weirdly tasted of nothing. And a cinnamon bun that we will have tomorrow, but I’m not too hopeful it will be good as it seems pretty hard already…then we wandered on and it started raining a bit and it looked like it was going to really rain and we put in our rain coats and I was like let’s just wait a minute under an overhang and I am glad we did as it poured for like 5 minutes. We would have been soaked! Once it let up some we wandered through a food market and found some thing we will go back for later, and then on the way back to our place we saw a rainbow! It was so bright (and on the left there is a bit of a second fainter one). We ordered some pizza for dinner from a vegan pizza place which was okay. Not as good as the place we get in Poland! The cheese wasn’t the best and the dough was just okay, but one was with pumpkin purée and zucchini and the other was with spinach, asparagus and pesto. The toppings were good, but overall just an okay pizza.

I had tried to not walk so much today, but again failed at that…oh well. We only have tomorrow and then we shall see what we get up to on Saturday and then home.Read more
