Copenhagen

Copenhagen started terrible but ended pretty good.

Carols backpack was picked in the train station this morning.   The thief got an empty travel wallet and an old kindle.  We deactivated the Kindle so he got nothing,  but being robbed is a terrible experience. 

It is still miserably hot and Copenhagen belongs to maniac cyclists.   One highlight was seeing a particularly obnoxious bike rider pulled over by the police.   A group of us pedestrians cheered!

The day turned remarkably better with dinner.   We decoded the excellent bus system and made our way to a Rick Steves pick featuring traditional Danish Cusine.  We had dinner outside by the water with a nice cool breeze.

Oslo

We are in Oslo waiting for a cab to take us to the ferry terminal.   Overnight ferry to Copenhagen.   I'm taking advantage of the blazing fast Internet at the City Box to upload some pictures.

We have had a great time visiting Sweden,  Finland,  and Norway.   Findland and Norway was with a Grand Circle tour, and now we are back on our own.  The tour included The Hurtigruten ferry down the coast of Norway and the Nutshell tour from Bergen to Oslo.
