We went ashore in the morning to a grey and wet day. We did a short walk around and then back to the ship. If we had waited until after lunch the weather turned into a perfect afternoon.

Due to bad weather ahead, the captain decided to stay docked overnight and skip our next port to avoid 4 metre waves and 100Km/h winds. While I like being rocked to sleep that level of storm is probably overachieving!

I couldn’t find a manhole cover specific to Copenhagen but did find an interestingly decorated one.

Nyhavn is the quintessential image of Copenhagen. Lots of people – as usual. The last time we were here we stopped at a sidewalk cafe and had a drink and people watched but the cafes were crowded and the weather not conducive, so we skipped it.

while walking back to the centre of town from the Kings Garden we came across the new guard (presumably). Either that or a bunch of soldiers out for a stroll?!

The main mission in Denmark was for Sue to replenish her makeup which is made in Denmark. This is the store! Lucky we did it today because we are skipping the other Danish port that is scheduled.
