Baltic Cruise - August 2012 on Oceania
We boarded a plane for Reykjavik. After seeing the pillow, I'm thinking, "I'm sure glad many Scandinavians speak English!" |
After a connecting AM flight to Copenhagen we got Danish kroner & took a commuter train to Central Station. |
Howard & I wondered how people find their bicycles in this city! I think they've got Amsterdam beat! |
After a rest, we walked to closeby Tivoli Gardens & ate at Wagamama (casual with excellent Asian food). |
We saw the beautiful Pantomine Theater & its peacock curtain. Feathers open from 2 sides at performance time. |
Howard eyed the roller coasters & I eyed the swings, but so soon after eating, decided to pass. |
"5 pack to go, please" kept concession lines short. We wanted to stay for 10PM concert but sleepiness stopped that! |
Around 8 it rained a little bit. Around 8:30 the lights came on. This is Nimb building at dusk. |
Next AM before transfer to the ship, we went to Botanical Gardens near Rosenberg. 5-6 weddings are held there each weekend day. |
After ship checkin, I went back out while Howard conserved his feet. Here's the Little Mermaid. |
I visited nearby Kastellet, an old fort with pretty buildings. |
I took a city water "bus" to see a couple of the sights. Here's the beautiful Opera, which sits right on the water. |
