We
spent our last day in Copenhagen by having a leisurely breakfast and
chatting with
another couple on the same cruise. We checked out of
the hotel, stored our bags and went for an hour walk. We passed the
Tivoli Gardens which already had people milling about ready for the
opening. Something must have been going on. We went into city hall
for a look see, then retraced our steps from yesterday along the
shopping pedestrian way. Returning to the hotel we retrieved our
luggage and then headed for the Big Red Bus for the third day. Our
ticket (buy 1 day get 2 free) was a perfect way to get to the ship as
the line dropped us at the Little Mermaid and then a free (for us)
shuttle took us right to the ship. Arrival and boarding went
quickly. There were very few people waiting in the terminal which
was unusual since we arrived right at the appointed time. We learned
later that 1000 people were staying on for this leg of the journey.
Our “deluxe” cabin has a small settee which is a good place to
sit and read. The balcony is so small that you would have trouble
“swinging a cat” on it as Judy would say.

Most
of the day was spent relaxing, unpacking, attending the safety
lecture and wandering around the ship. We also booked the one tour
that we decided to take.
The
7 pm show was a song and dance routine by the cast singers and
dancers. The show was 30 minutes long, a cut down in length that we
noticed on the last trip. Our set time dining is 7:45.
They
seated us at a table for 2 when we asked for a table of 8. We were
able to quickly
get a bigger table as there were other diners who
also wanted a change. Our table has 7 people: 2 Australians and 2
women and a man from California. We all decided that we wanted to
stay there for the rest of the cruise. We had the excellent prime rib
but one piece would be enough to feed both of us.

We
sailed at 10 pm so none of the shops were opened. By that time it
seemed that many had turned in. We are in Aarhus tomorrow (only
about 75 miles away as the crow flies. We intend to wander.

Two Australians and 2 women. What nationality is "women"?
It was nice to be able to find additional dinner companions, there is always more to talk about and learn when there are other people to share with.
Dave and Marilyn. Happy sailing.
