Copenhagen - Day 3

Our final day in Copenhagen was doing the leftover stuff. You know, the stuff we hadn't done already. Aussies tend to have some affinity for Denmark ever since little commoner Mary Donaldson married the Crown Prince. We'd thought to pay a visit to the Amalienborg Palace.

But first, a few snacks:


Hotdog 4. Followed by a soft serve dusted in cocoa. Mmm nutritious.


A palace guard.....



.... who then told me off for getting too close when taking this photo. Hey, a heart on the guard's box! It's cute!


The palace and it's grounds.

Then we climbed Fredrik's Church nearby.


Not much of a feat but it did give us a nice view of the palace and neighbouring opera house.


I found a lovely mushroom to sit on in the King's (Rosenbourg) Garden.

We had a final dinner at a cafe close to the hotel (the Danes really love their elderflower) and made our way to the airport.

Hotdog 5 joined us.

I'm glad to have ticked Copenhagen off the list, but there was something a bit lacking about the place. Definitely not the hot dogs though. As 'nice' as it was, it'll be unlikely that I visit again!
