Copenhagen

After a very relaxing sea day came Copenhagen.  We decided to do this city on our own, shuttle into main part of the city then walk.  After walking over 12k the day in Bruges today was an easy 8k.
Our first stop was the Rosenberg Castle where the Danish crown jewels a kept, most of the castle dates back to the 1600’s and was every ornate with lots of dark wood & tapestry’s on all of the walls.  Our second stop was Amalienborg Palace for the changing of the guards and to visit Mary of course.

Our final stop was the Nyhavn area, which is a waterfront area full of cafes & restaurants, we stopped for a quick drinks and a bit to eat, while sitting in the lovely café all of a sudden there was the guards marching back to where ever they had to go, was a great sight to see.
