 Here's the massive bridge that connects Sweden to Denmark. It is miles long and there is a suspension bridge section on the Swedish side and a tunnel section on the Danish side. It opened about 6 years ago. |
 This is how we got there ;) The Navigation system is in English, but you still have to type in the destination city in the native language (in this case, Copenhagen is K�benhavn in Danish). |
 Tivoli is the original theme park, and it is the one that Disney modelled his parks after. It opened in 1843 and is still in full operation. The gardens are apparently awesome, so we will go back in Spring to see! |
 Bang & Olufsen is the Danish audiophile company, and I absolutely LOVE their stuff for both its beauty and the impressive sound quality. It is absurdly expensive in the USA, so maybe I can buy something before I return... |
 We spent a lot of time on the "walking street" and shopped at the various stores. With 25% sales tax, it's not cheap, but it is fun to window shop and watch all the people. Copenhagen is a big city with a small city feel to it. |
 Hans Christian Andersen grew up in one of these colorful row houses along the canal. We took a tour of the waterways around Copenhagen, and even in the rain it was entertaining. We'll probably take the same tour with Brad's parents when they visit in June. |
 The Opera House is typically Scandinavian in its clean lines and angular shapes. Quite a bit different than the Sydney Opera House in Oz! |
 I just had to give Andy a call and tell him that even in Copenhagen, he will have his familiar 7-Eleven store to make him feel right at home (complete with the typical European graffiti on the walls...) |
