\"\"<\/a>Very long day getting to Copenhagen from Berlin,\u00a0 Had to take a 2 hour earlier train due to our train being rescheduled where we couldn’t get to bus on time to get on ferry across \"\"<\/a>the Baltic Sea.\u00a0 Waited at bus station for a long time after finally finding where the Flix bus actually departed from.\u00a0 \u00a0Then on the bus for 1\/2 hour ride to the ferry to wait in line for it to arrive.\u00a0 Drove on, then the mad rush of folks getting up the narrow staircase inside the ferry.\u00a0 \u00a0Lunch was burgers and fries,\u00a0 then the announcement to get back to the car deck and we were on Denmark soil now, and the 1.5 hour bus ride to Copenhagen.\u00a0 \u00a0Uber to the hotel.\u00a0 Got there around 6pm, we had left on a 7:30a train.\u00a0 \u00a0It was one of our longest traveling days so far.\u00a0 \u00a0We were going to sleep well that night… NOT.<\/p>\n

Hotel AC Bella Sky was where we stayed.\u00a0 Had probably the worst beds of the whole trip.\u00a0 \u00a0Talk about being warn out.\u00a0 And its a Marriott Hotel.\u00a0 The manager offered no help, stating they couldn’t possibly know what beds were warn out. She offered us nothing.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Knowing when there beds were warn out is precisely what a hotel should know as they are selling all of us a place to sleep among other stuff.<\/p>\n

Bus and Metro stops were very close to this hotel even though it was out in what I would call the middle of nowhere.\u00a0 \u00a0And a few Grocery Stores were about a 5 minute walk away.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Tuesday\u00a0 Walked to Metro, took it 1 stop to Orestad stop, then Trained to Malmo Sweden,\u00a0 \u00a0boarded a Bus to Castle Mill windmill,\u00a0 walk thru garden to get lunch at Slottstr\u00e4dg\u00e5rdens Kaf\u00e9,\u00a0 walk around Malmo Castle then over to Technical Museum.\u00a0 \u00a0Bus back to train station and train ride back to Orestad and hop back on Metro to hotel.\u00a0 Sweden was a nice clean place.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The next morning we headed out to find Freetown and along the way found a Church with spiral staircase outside.\u00a0 \u00a0About two blocks further we entered Freetown Christiana.\u00a0 \u00a0Its quite \"\"<\/a>an eccletric place.\u00a0 \u00a0Hippies took it over a long time ago and still live there.\u00a0 \u00a0If it was in the states the developers would have burned them out by now.\u00a0 \u00a0As we were leaving the community its started pouring rain, we ran across the street to get out of the rain under produce store awning attempting to stay dry.\u00a0 Once it slowed down a bit we got over to a bus stop and headed home.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Wednesday Midwest Cafe, round tower Furniture store, protest for Palestine where we ran into Tami and Scott while bussing to the Nyhavn area of town.\u00a0 We got lunch at a Nyhavn tourist area restaurant then walked around some more and later took a metro back to hotel<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Next day Kathy and I headed out to find Grundtvig\u2019s Church (danish modern),\u00a0 bus ride from hell on the way back with driving trying to fix door closure to fix air system,\u00a0 then Stop buttons didn’t work and we missed another stop going to \"\"<\/a>Elephant Gate & Tower,\u00a0 walk to the Carlsberg Brewery to view the beer bottle museum.\u00a0 \u00a0Had to go thru the whole brewery tour which was underwhelming at best just to get to the room with the bottles.\u00a0 \u00a0Afterward we did get a big glass of Carlsberg 1883 ale, which was really good, but we were informed it wasn’t available anywhere else.\u00a0 Bummer..<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Happy hour that evening on the big marble table in the transit area between the towers, met the Man and baby from New Zealand.\u00a0 That baby loved Tami…\u00a0 \u00a0 He also Helped us out with the Birmingham\/Manchester\/Leads vs York question on the route.\u00a0 \u00a0Kathy got a Poke bowl that night for dinner.<\/p>\n
