Walking in Copenhagen and getting Onbekommerd up to scratch

Yesterday, we took the train into Copenhagen itself. We had learned about the 'Copenhagen free city walking tours' and as they have an excellent write-up we decided to try them out. At 11 we left the Rådhuspladsen under the able direction of Rikka, who took us on a very interesting 3 hour walk. Lots of historical and current information!

Here she is under the yellow umbrella:








The concept of the free walking tours is interesting, they work for tips only and you pay what you think it is worth. No heavy sell, maybe just a suggestion but I had the feeling that if you gave nothing it was also ok. But as the guides are so good, it would not surprise me if the average person would tip more than they would have been prepared to pay 'up front'.

One of our sights was Nyhavn and we later walked into the Lego store (of course Lego comes from Denmark) and saw Nyhavn there as well:














Today was less exciting: the boat needed a 'clean up' and 'sort out' inside and also a general checkup mechanically (oil levels, filters and strainers and stuff like that). So we spent the day doing all that, plus two loads of washing and a big shop to get the supplies back in order.

After all that a short rest and now we are ready to face the world again!
