Holidays Starting Early


The semester has really been jam packed with events. We scheduled our trips according to when people would be visiting in Copenhagen, just to make sure everyone and everything. A big must-see was Tivoli, the second oldest amusement park in the world, accompanied by beautiful gardens. It happened to work out that Christian was in town for another visit and joined the trio for a visit to the park.

There are three different themes throughout the year and we were told that the Christmas decorations were the best. It was true.  The entire park was turned into a Winter Wonderland with all gift shops selling ornaments, Christmas trees and decorations, vendors selling æbleskiver (Americanly pronounced apple skewer) and glögg, and an overall holiday cheer. Although we didn’t ride any of the coasters, we had an awesome time strolling through the lighted paths and enjoying our mulled wine with almonds.

Another exciting thing we did with Bes in town was cook an enormous pile of pancakes and go to an outrageously German bar called Heidi’s that played this song
Yummy Breakfast of Champions
