Copenhagen


In Orsteds Parken, on our way to the Botanisk Have (Botanical Garden).

Helen in the Palm House at Botanisk Have.

Spring flowers.

Statens Museum For Kunst (the National Gallery).

Rosenborg Slot - a fairytale castle in Kongens Have (King's Garden).

The crocuses were in full bloom.

Vor Frelsers Kirke (the Church of our Saviour) in Christianshavn. The spire is copper and gold and it's 90 metres high. There are steps round the outside and we climbed all the way to the top.

The view from the spire.

We know it looks like a model, but we really did take this pic from the roof of Vor Frelsers Kirke.

Looking back towards Slotsholmen.

Oops. A bit out of focus.

By the canal in Nyhavn. Hans Christian Andersen lived on this street.

David on top of the Rundetarn (Round Tower).

Inside you walk up a cobbled spiral walkway that goes around seven and a half times to get to the top.

It was a bit chilly up there.
