Welcome to Copenhagen

in 2014 we flew into Copenhagen a couple of days early for a Baltic cruise and then spent another day there after the cruise.  It is a beautiful city with a lot to offer and see.  

The Tivoli Gardens Amusement park is a combination of rides, restaurants and shows set in a beautifully gardened setting right in the middle of the city. It was a really cool place.  The water cruise through the canals was a first for us and a great way to see the city. Just a great city.

In 2024 we returned to Copenhagen a day early to take our second Baltic Cruise.  We stayed on the Beautiful Nyhavn Canal where the scenic canal tours originate from.
