Fred and I spent a wonderful day in Copenhagen,
Danmark. Yes,
Danmark is the correct spelling and it is said like "Dan"mark. It seems that we as Americans like to change things to our liking. I am not sure why we spell it "Denmark" and say it "Den"mark but we do.
Danmark is a very modern city with old and new mixed together. We went on a city tour with a stop at the Palace Square and
Tivoli Gardens. The gardens is a amusement park that was built in the 1800's and is still standing today. What a wonderful place with rides, shows and great Danish
restaurants. My husband was happy with his
Carlsberg beer and pickled herring.
I truly missed my Father-In-Law today. He was such a calm soul with a cute Danish accent. I would like to think that he walked with us today. The Danish people are a very good looking race of people. The children we saw were beautiful. My favorite photo is of the different color houses. When Dusty was little his Grandfather built him a harbor of houses and a pier to dock his boats at. As you can see from my photos the sky was a glorious blue like the color of the Danish people's eyes. I enjoyed the short time we had in Copenhagen today and look forward to another visit to this country.
We are off to Germany tomorrow.
