Copenhagen was very exciting! Emily and I were exhausted on Thursday morning when we had to wake up at 3am to get to the airport. We probably didn’t have to even get up that early, and its safe to say that both of us were not in the best of moods that morning. We did make it to the airport easily and were comfortable on the way to Copenhagen. After we got to the airport and had some coffee, Emily and I were very hyper as we made our way to the hostel. We waited for our friends there for about an hour until they showed up. It was really exciting to see people from back home in London! Dakin (from Pennsylvania), Oscar (my flat mate, from England), and Meg (one of my other flat mates ... read more

We woke up nice and relatively early today excited that there was sun streaming through our window! So we got up checked out, dropped our stuff at the station and headed back to Tivoli for some fun and frolics on the rides!! It was a mon so there was no queues which was amazing! We started on a relatively tame rollercoaster just to get going and then they got more amazing slash scarier! Ben was not a happy chappy on the really high ones like the big drop but was a trouper and did all but one of them and ejoyed all but one of those!! :) He did a few more games and won enough chips not for the giant robot I wanted sadly but for a lil giraffe keyring which has been proudly named ... read more

I am writing this blog a day late, because the most eventful things that happened yesterday happened late at night....So it all began with Katrine cooking dinner for Mie and myself --Krebinetter--with potatoes and bernaise sause...so good. After dinnner we listened to music and pre-gamed it at Katrine's apartment, because downtown Copenhagen bars are super expensive, and almost everyone gets drunk at their houses and then goes out...so after card games (fuck the dealer danish version) and drunk twister I believe we were hammered enough to go downtown. The bars in Copenhagen don't close until 6 in the morning! so its normal to not go out until midnight...Katrine didn't think I would make it that late (as it turns out I was up until 6.30!) After an eventful bike ride to downtown we ended up at ... read more

Today I went with to school at CBS with Katrine. Today was her American Culture Studies class, so I felt like maybe today it would be more interesting than the Danish-English Law Translation class. First things first her teacher is super hot. After the class Mie, Katrine and myself went to a park in Copenhagen that shares a boarder with the zoo! It had a couple old buildings, some grand, some not so grand...but a beautiful skyline of Copenhagen from the top of the park. Afterwards we went shopping in a mall I had not been to yet. Surprise surprise another H&M, those things are everywhere around here. In the mall there was the store, Fotex, Mie got groceries, Katrine facial tissue (poor thing has the sniffles!) and I just got a chocolate bar with daim, ... read more
