Today was a beautiful, sunny and warm day as we started to acquaint ourselves with Denmark’s capital, Copenhagen. From sunrise to sunset we were on the move first with the Hop-on, Hop-off bus then a canal cruise topped off with a picnic dinner. We were fortunate to see this city at its best. Clear blue skies, and a high temperasure of 72 degrees both of which are a rarity in this Northern European capital. As a result, today was a great day to play tourist. A highlight was a visit to Copenhagen’s famous Reflections Ice Bar, an eclectic sub-zer0 club with walls, furniture and counters carved from ice imported from a spot north of the Arctic Circle in Sweden and an ice gallery with sculptures inspired by the fairytales of Danish author Hans Cristian Anderson. Debb and I played it cool with a gin cocktail called “Snow Rabbit” served in an ice glass while donning a warm winter jacket trimmed with fur. It was magical! Later, we toured by the residence of the Queen of Denmark, the Amalienborg Palace and the beautiful Tivoli Gardens. A good day!
