After disembarking the ship and dropping off our bags, we visited the Thorvaldsen Museum, which contains an interesting collection of statues and modern art. Next, we visited Christiansborg Palace, where the queen receives guests, and Rosenborg Palace, where the Danish crown jewels are stored. After that, we took the Rick Steves’s walking tour through Copenhagen. Exhausted, we headed back to the hotel (Wake Up Copenhagen) where the desk clerk was surprised that we were repeat customers (who would want to stay here twice?).
The next day, we ate lunch at a relatively affordable vegetarian buffet called Riz Raz. The eggplant salad was quite delicious. And then we headed off to Paris.
