Copenhagen - Little Mermaid & Surrounding Area

---

Since today was the last day in Copenhagen, I made sure to see the Little Mermaid statue. I’ve seen most everything I wanted to but hadn’t been down by the water there yet.

Hans Christian Andersen was from Denmark and wrote the Little Mermaid. Hence the mermaid statue. It is a famous landmark and tourist attraction. It’s located by Fort Kastellet. I walked along the water and the Fort on my Way back and was pleasantly surprised to see an old windmill, lots of tulips, and lilacs in full bloom! I knew I would likely miss the lilacs blooming this year at home so I was happy to see and smell them. I finally found my danish on my way back to the metro to head back and get ready to head to the airport.

Next up Athens via Amsterdam.
