5am Copenhagen time. 90 minutes until we land in Copenhagen, just had breakfast. Interesting flight from Singapore to Copenhagen. We flew from Singapore to over Dehli to over a place called Tula just south of Moscow and are now over Minsk. So we went north of the Ukraine. We got probably 2 hours sleep, I just hope we can check into our hotel early (9amish).
Thought I tore a rib early on when jumping over the armrest to get up. Nasty chest cramp but it settled down after sitting back down.
This will be all new now - Copenhagen.
Oh and the eggrolls for breakfast looked amazing.

10pm and just back at the hotel. Everything hurts but we have done a lot. At the airport we bought Copenhagen cards. Caught the train to the city, walked to the hotel. We had immediate early checkin - 9am. Yay.
Unpacked and walked to Stroget (before shops opened at 10am). Walked along NyHaven and back along the canal to where the canal tours start. We booked an 11:30am canal tour, bought coffees in the square and then it rained. Dashed for cover but the rain passed quickly. Did the canal tour (excellent guide and great way to see the city).
After the Canal tour spent 2 hours in Christianborg Palace, looking at all the amazing rooms and then the ruins. Walked back to the hotel (grabbed pizza on the way). Spent about 3 hours having an afternoon nap.
At 7pm we went to the Tivoli Gardens and walked around it for about 3 hours, saw it at 7pm without the lights on and then gradually all the lights came on. This place is incredible.
First impression of Copenhagen is that people are really friendly. Very nice first day, but my feet wont stop throbbing :)
