Didi and Kiki are here! June 2018.

Didi and Kiki are here for the first time, so we got to play tourist and show them all around Copenhagen. We had a great visit with them and can’t wait for them to come see us again.

We walked/scooted to Gefionspringvandet fountain by our house. It’s one of my favorites.img_7788.jpgimg_7793.jpgimg_7796.jpgKiki and the kids by the infamous Little Mermaid statue. From this picture, you can see how small it actually is, and all the tourists usually surrounding it.

We walked around the Kings Gardens. The Rose Garden looked especially beautiful. Later, they went back to tour Rosenborg Castle. The Crown Jewels are on display there.

Andy and David found Andy’s Bar.img_7891.jpg

Katherine got ice cream, and Andy took a rest.

Katherine taught Didi how to order at our favorite Danish bakery.

We visited Christianshavn.

Incredible lunch at WarPigs. So good in fact, I didn’t even get a picture before we dove in. img_7975.jpg

On a beautiful day, before Didi and Kiki left, we rented a boat to go exploring. Andy captained us through the canals and waters surrounding the city. It was really fun, one of my favorite things we’ve done here.

At the docks, picking up the boat. The kids are excited and ready to go. You can rent the boats by the hour and bring your own food and drinks. Below, top left picture, over my shoulder is a part of the Royal Danish Library, know as the Black Diamond. It is made of Absolute Black granite. By Andrew, in the lower left picture, is the Royal Danish Opera House.

ps.- My treats David and Karen brought me. The goodies I can’t get in Cph. They don’t have good OTC meds here or any super strong cleaning products, super processed food or grits.

pps.- The cough drops are for K, she LOVES the Ricola ones and has since she was little. My Dad buys them in bulk and would give them to her. I find wrappers of ones she sneaks under her bed sometimes.
