    I love seeing this picture of a place I have read a little about! I think I might have mentiond before the book “Number the Stars” to you that we read in school with our 6th graders, which takes place in Denmark during the occupation. This palace, along with King Christian X, are described in the story.

      Yes I remember you mentioned it. It makes me a little bit proud to learn that we are known outside the border. Maybe I should post more tourist images from Copenhagen.

  2. I’ve always wanted to go to Copenhagen. Not sure why. I think I just like to say the name. :) This place would be fun to explore.

      I think you should visit Copenhagen Scott. It is a wonderful city. It is old – close to 850 years. The water in the harbour is clean and people swim in it. The Danes are nice and helpful – but much more shy and reserved than American people.
      While you are here, you should see some more of Denmark. I’m sure that some of the fellow bloggers and I can come up with suggestions for a loooong vacation.

    Nice to see your summer-pictures from Copenhagen. I agree in your description of us (Danes), so I would be happy to show bloggers and other visitors around in my part of Denmark – (Eastern) Jutland.
