Denmark - Copenhagen

Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark. We loved Copenhagen. They have a royal family here and the princess is a Tasmanian, Mary. The Danes love Australians and they all speak English really well which is lucky because we don't speak Danish. They use Kroner as they money which was a problem because we only had Euros.
We went on loads of bus tours which was a bit boring. We visited the Little Mermaid statue, which is really famous. We went to the Tivoli Gardens which is a huge amusement park and they have concerts there ands fireworks but not on the night we went. We went on a very old wooden rollercoaster which Orlando enjoyed and Amelia didn't.
We went on the Aerial playground which is great and you have to wear helmets and a harness that you have to clip and unclip from the safety lines. Amelia finished the course and it took two and a half hours. Mum got stuck hanging over some trees and didn't want to finish it after that.
They have a Parkour course where you learn to jump buildings and staircases like they do in one of the James Bond movies.
Hans Christian Anderson comes from Denmark and they have statues of him everywhere. He wrote The Little Mermaid and other fairy stories.
Before we came to Copenhagen, we stayed at Aarhus. Aarhus has a living museum. They have an old town which has houses and shops from the 1800's and they are all furnished and there are people in there dressed in olden day clothes and you can buy olden day cakes and sweets. They also have the 1920's and the 1970's which wasn't very interesting but mum and dad loved it.
