Day two, we got up and tried to figure out how to downtown (our hotel was in the equivalent of Washington Heights, as far as I was concerned). Julia did some google maps thing, and figured out a bus route, but it turned out that her computer thought she was still in Utah and told us to take a bus that only runs at night. Of course, we didn't know this until we walked our legs off and got lost during a marathon happening in the city. We finally found our way downtown. (is that what they call it in Copenhagen? I don't know, but that is what I call it.) We took a little tourist
ferry through the canals of Copenhagen.


This little white house on the harbor was where Hans Christian Anderson lived at one time.




This is the top of the old World Trade Center in Copenhagen -- the three crowns represent Denmark, Sweden & Norway.

You probably can't tell, but this spire is comprised of four dragons with their tails intertwined.


Everyone rides bikes around town because it's a super flat city, plus, we discovered that so much of the city are walking streets and therefore the buses don't go there.


That night, we went to play, which was the reason that Julia went to Copenhagen in the first place. It was a play from China, and it was pretty much the longest, most painful 70 minutes of my life....And that's saying something since I had surgery this year!!
And that's pretty much day two!
