It was only a long weekend, but it was enough time to see the main sights of the city. We visited Nyhavn, where the boats dock in the canal, which is a bright and bustling place. We saw the Little Mermaid and took a boat trip along the waterways. We also visited many of the churches and the Palace, went up the Round Tower and went to Tivoli Gardens to while away a lovely evening.
I actually arrived earlier than Ross as we were flying from different cities and I made the most of my time my heading just north of the city to Helsinor to visit Kronborg Castle, famously the castle in Shakespeare's Hamlet. It is a stunning place and is also responsible for giving me one of the scariest travel experiences. I decided to head to the dungeons, only to find myself as the sole person in there and it pitch black. I am not normally afraid of the dark, but I had no idea where I was or how to get out and resorted to taking photos with the flash to guide my way out!!!
