Today was our first FULL day in Copenhagen. Not long after my post from last night, a few of us went wandering around a little more. We ended up heading through the Red Light district, which just so happens is only a few blocks away. Those 10 minutes were...interesting. We were almost out of the district when these two men came up behind us and kept saying 'coke', I'm pretty sure they didn't want a Coca Cola. We told them we didn't have any coke and didn't want any. They followed us for about a half block more then were gone. That was a very interesting part of our journey that night. We then continued to walk along the pedistrian shoping area. We walked almost a mile and a half along there and turned around because all of the shops were closing or already closed.
Today we went to the National Museum and looked around for a while. The viking section of the museum was closed for reconstruction so we didn't get to see that stuff. I spent most of my time in the Middle Ages section and took a lot of pictures. Then we headed out on a tour of the city on a bus. We saw the statue of the Little Mermaid honoring Hans Christian Anderson. We also saw the royal palace and the changing of the guards. The weather was really overcast today and rained for a part of the day. 7 of us went to eat dinner a while ago and it started to snow while we were walking there. The place was a nice Shish Kabob place which was cheap. I'm going to head out and sightsee some more with people. 9:10 at night seems to be an odd time to sight see but that's what this trip is about....taking in all the sights you can whenever you can!
