Overnight to Copenhagen


     We had a bit of adventure getting to Copenhagen. Checking into the Air Canada , we again found out that Judy's ticket was correct but for some reason my last name did not have a space in it. We double checked this many times and the documents that we had from Princess was correct but Air Canada insisted that our names be the same. It happen to Judy 2 trips ago and to me last spring. In any case this time there was no problem using the kiosk to check in, then waiteed in a long line that moved fast. The “assistance needed” line went on forever. From the airport drop off through security to the waiting area took about 30 minutes. We boarded our plane and were literally at the back of the plane in the last row #64. The flight itself was a quick 7 hours.
We cleared immigration and boarded the train for the city. We missed the main station because we were not quick enough getting off. So we took a train back but got off at the wrong place and needed another to finally get to the main station. People were very friendly in helping. We finally arrived at our hotel after a short walk! We were early for check in so we left our bags and headed out.
We decided that a 3 hour bike ride in the afternoon might be a bit much after not sleeping so we bought a 3 day ticket for the hop on hop bus. The seller gave us a discount for whatever reason. The price was basically the same as the 24 hour ticket but we can use it to go to the cruise port on Saturday since we have a late sailing.
We took a bus to the Carlsberg brewery. We had been there years ago; did the walking tour and used our entry tickets for a beer. After 2 hours we headed back to the main square. It was still a bit early to head in so we took the mermaid loop bus that lasted about 90 minutes. We stayed on the bus, dozing as the bus stopped 23 times. I think we have a good idea of what to do tomorrow. A quick bit and we were ready to turn in.
    It seems that I have the wrong patch cord for the camera.  No beer drinking photo today.
