| The First Stop - Copenhagen, Denmark | ||||||||||
|
We started our trip from Copenhagen, capital city of Denmark. Even though our main destination was in South Sweden, which lies just across the Straight from Denmark. Many Swedes work in Copenhagen but commute between Sweden and here everyday.
This was actually not my first trip to Copenhagen, I was on a camping trip (?!) with the company Contiki in 1993 and traveled all over Scandinavia in that trip. After being away for 12 years, many sights in Copenhagen still feel eerily familiar. Please click the thumbnail on the pictures to see enlarged images |
