| Nyhavn Canal |
Copenhagen is a big city with easily a week's worth of museums and sites to see and we had 24 hours. We opted for Nyhavn (that water just calls to us...), a walk around the city down the Stroget (a major shopping/restaurant/social scene street) with stops at City Hall Square, Rosenborg Castle, the King's Garden and Orsteds Park before heading to the railway station for our train to the airport. Here's Copenhagen on the run...
