Denmark Copenhagen

The ICE Express train takes the Ferry... just like anyone else..

across an arm of the Baltic
from former East Germany, near Lubeck,
and on to Copenhagen.

The very Aussie laid-back way the guards stroll up & down outside the Royal Palace is funny,

...they even have their arms folded while they are doing it !

This old fishing boat is almost identical to the ones that sailed out of Bridlington Harbour, when I was a lad...
but our part of Yorkshire's sea-faring connections with Denmark were always very close !

This old ship had a British flag.

But this old sub wasn't going anywhere.
Recognise it at all, Dave?

Now this was something else again!
Owned by a Kuwait company, built by an English yard, registered in the Caymens. When I googled it, the Billionaires' Club is the agent to contact if you want to charter it. Helicopter on the top deck!

This saxophone guy sat on that bench on the railway bridge outside our hotel window till 11 or 12 at night. Sometimes mates came along and distracted him from his repertoire of 4 tunes.















On the edge of this building is a thermometer. 
It was showing a lucky 20 or so on a good day in this wet summer in the north. But look how low the red line can go in winter! Minus 20C













Here is the real story teller, Hans Christian Andersen, with his little friend Granpa Graham

And here is Granma Graham getting closer to The Little Mermaid. She was very busy getting her picture taken.

This Round Tower in the old town was built in 1642 to have an observatory on the top. No stairs! Just an incline in bricks.











This is the first city we have seen this trick. Hat wired to glasses. No visible head. Got lots of second looks.

We once sent a photo of a similar boy and dog to Steve from Paris. This Gallery, a gift from the Carlsberg owner, also had Rodin casts of statues that turn up all over the place.

Mel, the colours have come out a bit dull here, but this is a lass with the chickens in her farmyard. We thought of you.

The title is Girl in a Spanish Dress. We remembered Adela in her red Spanish dress.

Neil seeing a Van Gogh he never saw before.

And this is part of a painting called The Beggar. again the colour is not bright, but he has a scarf like mine.

Tivoli's tallest ride viewed from our hotel window. They get sent really high up.
