A walk along the canals in Copenhagen

We walked in Copenhagen, all day, everyday. Lots of flower shops even though it was brisk and chilly.

On one all-day stroll we left early in the morning for Maeve's favorite little pastry spot, St. Peter's Bakery, too feed our addiction to coffee and a sweet, then out for an all-day ramble that took us along the wind-swept waterfront to the old and lovely canals.

But first we passed by the royal family's residence -- see the guard marching back and forth in front of the front door. We also visited the Danish Resistance Museum and learned how the Danes handled the German occupation during WW II and conspired against their success.

In between all this walking, we ate one of Copenhagen's famous street sausages --- served on a little cardboard plate with a squirt of mustard on the plate -- dip the dog into the mustard, mmmmmm, good.

After our very long hike that took hours and hours, we ate a lovely meal in a restaurant right on the canal (I had fantastic pumpkin soup drizzled with basil oil, and a plate of grilled seafood.

Then we went on to see a ballet that night in a beautiful concert hall (see lobby pic) across the water. We took a ferry across to the concert hall, and a bus back late that night.
